<div dir="ltr">The later Microbees (we had a couple of 128k models at my primary school in the mid to late 80s) were network-able as I understand it. Not that you could do much with them once you did network them, though you could share a tape drive to load software onto them. :)<div><br></div><div>Ah, the days of BLOAD...</div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On 13 November 2014 13:43, CAS Support <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:support@cbl.com.au" target="_blank">support@cbl.com.au</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex">Thanks for prompting the trip down memory lane :). In 1994 I like to think I was an 'innovative cobbler'. I'd been running a dialup BBS (Maximus/OS2) for some years and toying with linux since beta. What I ended up with was a system where people would dial in to the BBS with Trumpet Winsock and the modem script would open a terminal session on the linux box which would fire up Slirp and give them a SLIP link. We started with a G-Tek 4 port serial card and ended up with a 64 port external serial something or other before we switched to ISDN in the late 90's.<br>

FWIW, my first computer was a Microbee ... no network capabilities there (and probably no networks to connect to either) :)<span class="HOEnZb"><font color="#888888"><br>
