I know others have used a CoCo dialed into a unix system, and I've done it
in the past. It was mainly to download RS-DOS executables, so I was using
Ultimaterm with zmodem on the CoCo side.

Assuming I can get gcc working, or someone else is willing to try porting
Contiki using another compiler, then that's also an option, in the future.
And of course the superboard add-on, which I think is more likely to
occur in the near future. :)
