Well, when they first came out, I had one on loan. While it was feature-wise nice (I don't remember, but it may have had magic cookies), it was too slow. It couldn't do much more than 9600 baud. If you set it to 19200 (or even 38400) it would flow control itself back down to an effective 9600. Thats pitiful! Also, if you ran something like "yes 1234567890123456789" at 19200, you'd have a hard time interupting it (host output take priority over keyboard input!? eek). I haven't used a Wyse 60 since that came out with ANSI (vt100) compatibility. I still haven't heard about these problems being fixed, though. John
