Derek:
With the help of a Serial Port Redirector in a Linux or Window box you can play that games via Internet. I didn't do it personally, but It could be a very interesting experiment for a weekend.

Games such as P-51 Mustang Attack Flight Simulator by Tom Mix that  allowed you to play against other players using a serial cable or modem. How hard would it be to patch this in to make it playable online using a coco on each end?
