   I am now the proud owner of the DOS-73 co-precessor board for the UNIX pc.
Over all I am quite pleased, it runs GLIM (a generalized maximum likelihood 
regression package) very nicely without degrading my foreground UNIX tasks.
  I do have one *major* diffuculty/request.  As configured, termcap entries are
provided to permit remote use of the co-processor from AT&T 510 and 513 
terminals; remarkably there are some of us in the world who happen to have
neither at home.  I've hacked on my Televidio 950 for years now.  Can the
DOS-73 be used remotely by other terminals?  Version V.1.2 (UNIX pc release 2)
used to allow Televidio 925's (hence 950's) to be a remote office machine,
for some reason this was dropped in the otherwise infinitely better version 3
software.  Life without the user agent is possible in UNIX, DOS-73 sends
gibberish when invoked.

"All help apprecieted, but you'll get no money here."
