sure, just look for a dreamcast bba on ebay, but expect to pay at least 100 or more, since they're becoming rarer & rarer

Topic moved to Online section.


Yes a BBA or the PC-DC server method http://dreamcast-talk.com/pcdcserver.html would be the other alternatives. You could go for a cheap or free dial up isp if you have standard phone service in your home.

I need to get a new monitor for my old Windows 2000 hard drive...I am currently using some old Mac I got for free from a guy that was moving and I used it as backup! my Windows XP hard drive got a virus that destroyed all the nesacary files needed to run when I let this one girl i know download certain programs to take to her PC(she used a USB flash drive). my old monitor got messed up when my cats started playing and the big ones started play fighting and chasing each other all over the house until two of them got tangle behid my pc and pulled the Monotor cable which led to the great fall...

Nope, just my excuse for not being able to use the pc-dc thing...
