This is definately (sp?) possible, but only if Mel includes an I/O 
port on the expander.  It would be very hard to build a pass through 
for the expander.


I have been think of something like this for a while, and if you 
want, I will help you (or whoever) design the hardware and software 
for the multiplayer connection.  But whoever does end up working on 
it (if it is actually worked on) should wait until Mel releases the 
Expander specifications (hopefully with an I/O port, hint, hint... :)
