But where is the IP stack going to hide?

AGS replaces a game's RWTS on the fly ... it checks for something that
looks like $BD00 from RWTS and replaces it with an equivalent (tiny)
serial driver that works on a II, //e or IIgs.

If Uthernet had firmware one could call to send and recieve bytes, it
would be supported already. As it stands I see a ton of work to get IP
going, and not much benefit.
