Great idea! It is quite funny, me and some of my friends who have the 
fabulous TI-92 have talked about it in a very informal way. I would 
like to notice that maybe a network hub and especially a server 
probably wouldn't be needed.


I am not an expert, but maybe a single cable would be enough to send 
the information across the "network": a single machine would use it at 
a time, while all the others would be "listening" it. Of course, 
special software would become necessary, and above all, a single wire 
would have to support severall conections between the machines.


Maybe someone more used to electronics and the 92 would embrace the 
idea... If it possible, it would still be great to know it.
