To hell with baud rates.
Over the years I've been upgrading every old ass machine I have with some sort of ethernet functionality. Commodore 64 has a user-port WIFI device, the Apple II and IIGS both have a Uthernet II, the Tandy 1000 TL has an 8-bit ethernet card, all the other old x86'ers have 3com Etherlink III's installed.. etc etc. Created air-gapped LAN to transfer files over FTP.
That solution is insanely better than the serial cable transfers I started out with, @ baud rates.
That is cool those options are available.
