Re: A86: Internet on your TI-83/86
I'll quote my original message:
"...from there, dial a shell account (ask your ISP if they have one),
and..."
I don't know how this subject went on a tangent about unix/shell/dial-up
when I said it fine in my first message. To Stuntman: if the other message
you wrote was an apology to not noticing what I had said, then apology
accepted.
I hope everyone has this straight now. You need a dial-up shell. Not all
ISP's have this. Call them and ask.
Thanks.
