#            ------------
#               - 2 asynchronous RS-232 ports    68901 MFP
#               -  2  asynchronous/synchronous  RS-232  ports  (Appletalk or
#                 PromiseLAN)  Zilog 8530 SCC

Question: Isn't the Zilog 8530 SCC the same chip used by the Mac to do
Appletalk? If so, this is a quite nice chip; it doesn't interrupt every
octet, and it calculates your CRCs for you.
