I have MacTerminal, and have used it for 2-1/2 years. Not having used
any others save MacKermit I can't say much except that I have no
complaints.  I only use it (1200 baud) to read news, rarely to edit
files (vi-vt100), or play nethack on the computer at work. And it has
been more than adequate for those needs.  I've only used it several
times to download files, but I don't recall any problems.  One thing
I like is MacTerminal documents: you set up all the parameters for
whatever you're communicating with, open the document and you're connected
if direct connect, or pull down dial, it dials and you're in. To
get to the computer at work I: turn on the modem, double-click on the
correct document, pull down "dial", wait for the connect and login. You
can't get much simpler than that.

QUESTION:
	I have version 1.0 (I think) 17 Aug 84.  It doesn't work on an
SE.  Is there an upgrade from Apple that I can get for a modest amount
of money?  Or would I be better off trying one of the ones you're all
talking about (see my usage above)?

Thanks.
