Norm,

I think that you should seriously consider trying the latest SIO/VSIO
drivers, *especially* if you use DOS/WIN Comm pgms.  They worked wonders
for me.  With them, I now get better performance at 14.4bps, and with
*no tweaking* of the DOS settings (that's right, I can just use the default
DOS settings) than I got at 2400bps using the OS/2 COM/VCOM drivers,
at all possible combinations of DOS settings.

Cheers,

Eric
