Just saw a benchmark on printing a page with a lot of graphics on an LJ2 at the parallel port. The time from the light coming on to the drum motor starting was 3:00 for the Netport, 1:17 for the FAXpress. Also saw Castelle just announced 10BaseT and 16 Mbit Token Ring models, too (we run thin Ethernet). __________/\/\.\/\/. "May all your sins be original, or good copies."
