The $500 machine is here. Find a used 386 with about a 200 mb drive,
and put a generic 14.4 modem into it.

The cable connection is exciting because of the bandwidth that would
be available from a pipe that's already in your house. No need to call
Ma Bell for that second phone line when the wife & kids let you know
that it's THEIR telephone too. With that bandwidth, youll want good
resolution, a high speed machine, and audio -- (as a minimum).

The $500 machine is just hype! A near-diskless eunich of a machine is
little more than "interactive TV" which has gotten a big ho-hum
in some trials.
