Yeah, I'm super bummed.

Sorry guys, I'm gonna have to drop out! Car's in the shop with a bad coil.

Soldering iron+TLC=fixed. Probably.

What is the meaning of the name Teleidofusion?

Truly amazing. I concur that the opening track is the best, amazing stuff. I didn't like 7, because of the vox, which were... a bit jarring to a native English speaker like myself. But overall, pretty dang amazing!

Yeah, and what uB says is true- get the LAN working first. To get on the niternets, you're going to need the following things: An ethernet card, drivers for said card, and a TCP/IP stack driver, at the very least. You could do it IPX style, but you're going to need a TCP stack if you plan on using the web as we know it today. So those should be some leads. So, in DOS you have to set up not only the drivers, but what protocol you're going to use to communicate on the network, and you want it to be TCP/IP. You probably won't have automatic IP address assignment working on DOS, you'll need to assign one manually. Also, if you have any gateway/proxy whatever set up you'll need to route through there, which isn't automatic on DOS like it is in Wondoze.

Haha, why use DOS? If you're not afraid of a CLI, you should use Linux and browse with Lynx. Another possibility, and one that I use to surf teh interwebs with my Apple IIgs, is to get a serial to ethernet device server, like the Lantronix MSS-VIA (or any Lantronix UDS) and use that to connect to ethernet home network via null-modem serial cable. The device pretends to be a dial up modem, only instead of sendin ti a phone number you just open up a connection and type in a TELNET command. If you have a shell account with someplace like the SDF then you can get email, SSH, Lynx, IRC, and more.
