   If it's getting data in and out of your 100, I used to run Telecommuter on   
   my T1000,   
   which was a 100 'workalike' only it ran under MS-DOS.  I still use   
   Telecommuter   
   for some things these days.  Anyway, Telecommuter came with a small module   
   you   
   downloaded to the 100 that now made it capable of binary transfers back and   
   forth   
   to the MS-DOS machine.  Not as nice as a real DOS for the 100, but not bad.
