Be careful--the next logical step is having your IIc just be a terminal for

I do like the idea of getting the time/date with each vdisk access...
Well... let's toy with this idea. Why not a small form factor machine, like a Raspberry Pi or similar mini 'PC' that could provide HD partitions (and/or disk serving), clock functions (at least date and time stamping) and serial to ethernet connectivity at the same time? That's the kind of love the //c (and IIc+) could benefit from.
Until the SPVHD is shipping again (it's supposed to be getting a clock driver too), a serial solution may be the only viable option for a long time.
