Relative to the 80-column character loss with high baud rates on the
Apple as a terminal ....

It was revealed by Jim Hayes that the problems was not in the SSC
interface, but rather the 80-column firmware that handles scrolling,
and thus loses beginning characters.  He recommended a hardware
scrolling card made by Computer Stop, near Hawthorne, CA., which
worked much faster.

This card was for the ][ and ][+ only; it is *NOT* compatible with the
//e.  For this reason, it is no longer in production, but they do have
a few cards left.  It was one of the very early 80-col. cards, and was
called the Omni-(something).  The number is (213) 214-1501.
