It would be interesting to know if Microphone turned out to be the culprit.
When I used to run Synapse on the Neuron there were no such problems when
downloading (with Microphone you can't really do anything else while d/l'ing).
Same with tip and zmodem- no problem. 

Perhaps Software Ventures has newer drivers for the various modems they 
support? Microphone has potential, but the downloading issue and the updating
of the screen could do with a small fix.
