Thanks to all those who contributed to this program... it just revitalized
the 2 - Apple //es and 3 - Apple IIgs in our household.  The best part is
that I have a new peripheral for all these Apple IIs a Windows XP Laptop. :)

Also, I've download a few Apple II disk images and played a few games from
yesteryear, the best part is when my kids jumped in and asked what is that?
I told them, these are the original games from 25 years ago or more.... They
were like Wow.  I thought it was original for the Playstation.  It's nice to
get a few laughs, and get a younger generation interested in the Apple II. 
They now sneak down to the office to play a few classic games on the Apple
IIe.

Thanks again!

Now on to figuring out the Apple II game server software.. this should be an
interesting exercise for the weekend.
