   This is more aimed at UK people, I guess...   
      
   Back in the 80's Prestel/Micronet 800 advertised their service could   
   be accessed with a number of modems, the Pace Nightingate with a   
   cartridge, and the Commodore Modem Cartridge.   
      
   Micronet 800 and Prestel didn't use the usual terminal software that   
   runs 8N1 but it uses 7E1 and a specific character set. There is mention   
   of something like "Y2-Mustang" but I have not been able to track it   
   down.   
      
   Is there anyone around who accessed Prestel in the 80's with a CBM 64   
   that can recall the software they used and, more importantly, does   
   anyone have the software? It would be known as Videotex or Viewdata   
   software.   
      
   Thanks,   
   Nigel
