Someone wanted to know how to download programs into the PORTFOLIO. This is
done with the PARALLEL interface; there's software built into the FOLIO (and
on disks that come with the parallel adapter) that makes a bitwise transfer
(I guess they use BSY and STROBE on the centronics port) between FOLIO and PC.
Its rather slow, but it works fine!
BTW: has anybody seen ROM revisions > 1.072 ???
