I've read recently about the Double Click serial port expansion box allowing
 the STs or Megas to operate to 38400 baud. Is this true?
I definately want to know!!!
I've been thinkin' of gettin' a USR dual standard(HST & V.32) modem for my BBS.
It would be GREAT to do 14.?K transfers WITHOUT data compression!!
I thought there were custom chips inside the STs that limit it to 19.2K??
Then you have to a version of TOS that supports flow control, AND software
 that utilizes this speed.
Did I hear another vicious rumor or can this really be done?
