I agree that HDS makes terminals with great features and at a pretty low
cost.  But, back at my previous job, I didn't buy them.  Not because of
reliability problems, *but* because they could barely do 9600 baud without
flow control!  19200 was effectively flow-controlled back down to an
effect `11000 baud'.  Can anyone with one of HDS's recent terminals
tell me this is no longer a problem?
