You didn't say how close the two machines are, but if they are in the
same
room AND you have an extra com port on both machines, all you need is
modem eliminator and some comm cables..... If you have V.35, even
better,
since you could proably get speeds approaching 56kbs and up with the
"correct"
modem eliminator... there are different ones, depending on adapter
speeds...
