I wouldn't open up my 85 personally, mainly cause my dad paid for it
originally for a college course and gave it to me when he was done, and he'd
be major pissed. He's thinking of just buying a second one... :)

I've heard of people doing that... I'm not sure how many wires. No doubt
most of you have heard of FTerm for the upcoming Fargo, which supposedly
allows you to somehow wire an external modem to the port and dial / operate
it... Surf the net with just a calculator and a BBS / ISP with Lynx and
unix shell, save schools lots o money :D
