Looking at the properties of the images of the CoCo and Dragon, they're
about 24K each--so that's maybe 10 seconds at 56Kb/s. The surprises are
the borders: I'd be inclined to do them as GIF or PNG, since they're
line art, and should compress extremely well. (Just tried header.jpg;
switching to one-bit color and exporting to GIF took it from 33.8K (six
or seven seconds of dialup download time) to 484 bytes.)
