Several years ago I wrote some hand-rolled assembly code to do 38K baud
transfers from a Micromint Micro D-Cam solid-state image sensor hooked
up to my old Z100. Worked fine after I figured out how to do it. :-)
It helped to have the BIOS and ROM sources for reference. I wasn't
able to get it to work until I started speaking directly to the uart.
