Sorry, I would have deleted some of the above but I can't seem to locate
PF-14 in Kermit v3.87's VT100 emulation.  I tried a few escape sequences but
they caused some nifty stuff to happen that I didn't really care for.  Anyway
I was just wondering what kind of problems other people have had with TWGS's?
The guy I bought mine from swore he didn't have any problems with mine, but
I did right from the start (in slot 4).  Then I realized the oscillator (no
matter how I spell it it looks wrong) was loose, and I stuck it in slot 3
(at the same time so I don't know which caused the problem).  Then I tried
to sell it to a friend and he had all kinds of problems with it (crashing
stuff all the time, really unpredictable).  I don't know what slot he put
it in, or exactly what kinds of problems he was having (he's kind of a moron)
so I took it back...and it wouldn't work right for me either!  Then I stuck it
in slot 2 and it's worked flawlessly ever since.  Seems pretty odd to me, so
I was wondering if anyone out there had a similar experience, or could even
explain this.
