The DG/One uses cmos 8251 communications chips driven by an 8253 counter
instead of the 8250 chips used in PC compatibles.  Communications programs
not written to drive this hardware configuration will not operate properly,
usually locking up the machine.

A very few comm programs are avaialable with versions for the DG/One.
Some customers claim Pro-YAM is the only one that works properly on the
DG/One.
