[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.
