	Me too! My Linux box had the modem and diald so the link would come up 
when needed. All the other computers in the house (Coco3, MM/1, and 
AT306) had a serial PPP connection to the Linux box. 'ftp rtsi.com' on 
the Coco3 and the Linux box would dial-in to my provider and route the 
traffic from the Coco3 to RTSI.

	Now my Linux box has wireless broadband, and I live 10 miles out of town.
