Well, I finally got a copy of PROCOMM 2.4.1.  I can make it lose characters
on the screen at baud rates from 1200 up with a little bit of keyboard activity
while characters are coming in. 2.3 would lose characters at 19.2K baud but
2.4.1 is much worse. Response is pretty good on a monochrome screen with
a VEGA card emulating a Hercules Mono graphics or MDA but on the same vega
card acting like a CGA the response goes through the floor. There is something
REALLY wrong with this version of PROCOMM. 
We were really counting on PROCOMM here for a project in the works and
even got authorized but it looks like 2.4.1 needs serious work.
