Drew,

I am not using AUX.  I am using the USR internal (S100) modem board.
It exists as a port address on the bus and as far as I can tell is
not capable of producing INTerrupts when a character is ready --
which means I am stuck polling the board's status to see if a character
is ready and may miss some if MSDOS takes too long in its CONSOLE
output routine.
