Mike,
I was going to send a more detailed email, but I could not find my notes
on the subject...sorry! Kind of a tounge-in-cheek response on my part
instead.
I know that Larry Anderson demoed at VCF 9 two PETs hooked up via a
parallel cable and adapter I believe for use in a game. The game involved
a split screen view on both systems, with views of the other screen
transmitted through the parallel cable. I don't have all of the details.
I have a later pet with a strange coax port daughterboard used in some
sort of communications. Sorry I cannot be specific.
Bill
