If a modem/serial card without a 16550 UART is used, do problems exist? I understand that the UART buffers the data, but without this, will things just work a little slower or will data be dropped? Is there a break-even point, say 9600 baud without a 16550 is okay, but beyond that one is really necessary? Thanks in advance for any information.
