Don,it seems to me that you are confusing things. Your Ann Arbor does not
let you have 6 virtual terminals at a slot, each operating independently.
Ever wish you could *use* that time during a make?

Also, comparing the flow control under layers to the Ann Arbor running raw
is hardly fair. The DMD running raw is just as nice (nay nicer, because
even in raw mode I can download whatever emulator I want) as the Ann Arbor.
Nicer, really, because it doesn't tend to have quite as bad focus problems.

As to 19.2, Frankly I think its uninteresting. Most serial ports on the
computer end can't handle that.

All I can tell you is I use one daily with all of the software I want.
