Now, with Excalibur's own TCP/IP connectivity package, they are places to visit.

With Excalibur's ease of set-up and use, the addition of internet connectivity places the whole world in your lap. For the user, it is as simple as using a domain name or an IP number instead of a phone number.

Camelot can be designated as dial-up or internet!! All of Excalibur's features... information, graphics, games... are available to your users world-wide for the basic cost of internet access.
