 I've hooked a TRS-80 Model 4P into here for a quick test. :)  It worked
 fine, both under LS-DOS as well as CP/M.  You shouldn't have a problem with 
 the C128.  All you need is a modem program.  I got the /ASM source for a
 VT-100 emulator for the 4P that I used, but most any terminal emulator
 should work fine in conjunction with a null-modem cable.
