I was speaking -- as most people do, quite properly -- of the end-to-end
binary baud rate, which is what is of interest to people.  I wasn't
speaking of the baud rate of the analog modulation in the middle, which
is only of interest to modem designers and analog engineers, and should
be completely transparent to computer users.
