	We have a research project here that requires a workstation (currently
a Sun 3/50) to write to a serial<->midi interface at 38.4Kb.  The Sun handles 
this fine, but in moving to a DS3100 platform, we can't get speeds above 
9.6Kb.  The header files support 19.2Kb and 38.4Kb, but it seems the DS3100
hardware doesn't.  My questions are: Is this a known hardware limitation?  Are 
there any other DEC workstations that support >= 19.2Kb?  Thanks...
