My problems are still not solved. I now use a patched version
of MED V2.13, that uses the CIA B timer. I want to use this
program while running a multinode high-speed (19200/38400 baud)
BBS, but that's impossible. The CIA B timer causes characters
to get lost even at 9600 baud?
 
So: Why the heck did Commodore remove the CIA A timer in 2.0?
Can this problem be fixed, somehow? I thought the Amiga was
a *multitasking* machine, right? It is really unbelieveable
that a 25Mhz A3000 machine can not transfer at 9600 baud
while using a music program???
