[TI-H] Calc Net




So to recap:

We can wire all the calcs strate together (red to red, black to black, and 
white to white) And hope that one; we don't fry the link port geting a input of 
12 insted of 1 and 0. And two let the calc handle all of the protocals.

We can use a centeral router/hub, and let the router do most of the protocals, 
and let the calc's do the remaining front end stuff. A 386 or a laptop with a 
parallel port could handle between 4 and 8 calc's and act as a file/simple web 
sever. 

Or lastly we can use a percalc adpter (kind of a nic card), and let it handle 
voltage/curent and clock cycles over head issues we have with option one, and 
the portabilty of option two. Its down side would be the amount of money we 
would have to put in to it. Thoe this also might be an easyer way to allow 
cross platform connection because each link would speak the same protocal on 
the network end and whatever on the host end. So we could put memory expanders  
pc's, printers, etc. on the network.
