First of all I was wondering if there was a detachable keyboard made for the
ST. Specifically the 520 and the 1040.

About the TOS 1.4 rumor.
I have heard that TOS 1.4 has a bug in one of its RS-232 routines.
And that there is a patch program that has to be used to make the
RS-232 port work. Is this true?

I have the TOS 1.4 upgrade but it will not work in my 7-1985 revision ST
with a MEGA-RAM upgrade. (I know the upgrade is junk, but it was the first
available, and least expensive.: It is most likely my problem)

PS: The program is called TOS14FIX.PRG and is about 700 bytes long.

Thanx, Pete
