    Fork of Jim Brain's tcpser program

  • I use a null modem cable to a my main PC (with a serial card) with tcpser running. It works pretty well for me for both my Apple IIe (300 baud), 486SX laptop (9600 baud), and a 200MMX late DOS rig (115200 baud). Any other modern machine capable of connecting to the net with a serial connection will do, I used to use my P4 WinXP rig as the 'bridge' for a time.
