My current setup:

Apple ][gs

10 MB Sider in slot 7
2 3.5 floppys  and 1 5.25 floppys using builtin interface on slots 5 and 6
AE cpm in slot 4 (currently turned off... using mouse)
builtin video in slot 3
Super serial card in slot 2  used for local terminal using Snowterm
Builtin serial card in slot 2 used for modem at 2400 baud
(used for America On Line)

imagewriter ][ hooked up to builtin printer port at slot 1


Two problems:

I have tried using the super serial card at baud rates higher than 2400
without success.  I am using software called Snowterm  and it seems that
2400 is as fast as I can go without losing characters.
Anyone know if the super serial card has problems with higher baud rates.
If I use the builtin port can I expect to go beyond 2400? (Interrupts are
already turned on on the super serial card).

Also I have recieved an "unexpected interrupt" error from gsos when trying
to save downloaded text.

Anybody out there run into this?
