  Baloney. Cameron Kaiser has written a non-TCP/IP "web browser" for
the Commodore 64. Novaterm 10, also for the C=64, has enough of a
"TCP/IP stack" for telnet. Both of these programs work in only 64k.
Someone else is writing a PPP program for the Tandy Color Computer 3,
which is a better computer than any Apple or Commodore, but is about
15 years behind in communications software developement. (The C=64
could download images in 1984.) If we can do Telnet, or ASCII/ANSI,
HTML 1.0, and several image formats, in 64k, why can't we do both in
128k? And what do you think the 512k CoCo 3, 640k C=128, and 1.1m
Apple IIe, IIc, or IIc+ coud be capable of?
  All ibm pee see and macintrash dealers are either liars of they
don't know anything about computers the ibm/microslop establishment
doesn't want them to know. It is becoming more obvious all the time
that the idea that you can't surf the internet with an 8-bit computer
is an ignorance supported lie.
