	Well, we finaly got ours last Friday.  It has a new icon (ooooh!)
and a very nice manual with a blue cover (aaah!) but otherwise doesn't feel much
different -- which is good I think.  I haven't put it through all its paces
yet, but so far it seems really solid -- in other words: typical VersaTerm.

	It now shows all of these settings in the file Transfer Progress
Window.  Very reassuring.

Flip side,
