I'm following Dr. Goodman's article, and using the MAX232
driver/reciever.

I don't want to get wierd, because I've got half a modpak... Someone
had started the conversion, but didn't finish.  Weird thing is, they
were messing with the address decoding, so I need to spend some
quality time with a data book to figure out where this thing is
addressing itself.

Besides, I was already ordering a bunch of weird computer parts from
Jameco.
