Special Projects Group Lines: 19 As much as 38400k ... Sure the chip can run at 38400k ... but that assumes no overhead for the operating system. IBM-PC Kermit (not to be confused with Z-100 Kermit) can do transfers at up to 115Kb, but it intercepts the interrupts. Its difficult to rewrite the Z-100 routines for mere 4 fold improvement when you can transfer an entire hard disk with one command (Kermit has an associated program to send directories), and most Z-100's don't even have a hard disk. Unless, Scott, YOU want to. :-) Drew -- Drew Derbyshire Internet: ahd@clutx.clarkson.edu U.S. Mail: 108 Decatur St, Apt 9 UUCP: kendra!ahd@garp.mit.edu Arlington, MA 02174 Telephone: 617-641-3739
