Hello,
	I got most of my other problems worked out. I'm now happily tele-
computing at 1200 baud on a UltraSpeed 1050 drive, using SpartaDOS 3.2c.
The problem I reported before with the modem was really the fault of using
the wrong R: handler. Getting the right one was trivial.
	My question now is - how many of you have installed the Newell 256K
RAM upgrade to your 800XLs, and how many of *you* use SpartaDOS? Do you have
a RAMDisk driver that supports the Newell upgrade? The RD programs that come
with SpartaDOS only support the RAMBO XL upgrade and one by Claus BuchHolz
which was printed up in Byte magazine. Naturally ICD, the people who
created/publish SpartaDOS, and who manufacture/distribute RAMBO, don't seem
too enthusiastic about supporting a competing upgrade. Anyone gotten around
this difficulty?
	Thanks in advance for any suggestions...
