Tom, I went back and looked at some sources and found that there is another alternative, but that your customer was asking the wrong question. I looked back on the recent variations of the integrated servers and found that chronologically they had: 1. No communications (up through the Pentium 166). 2. One or two serial ports (Pentium 200/333) 3. 2 USB Ports So while your customer cannot share existing OS/400-supported communications cards with the Windows operating system on the integrated server, they should look at the card itself and see what they can plug into it. Depending on the generation of hardware they may be able to use either a standard serial modem or a USB modem directly from the card itself.
