What egzakly is the difference between VT and VT-PRO?  I am thinking seriosly
about the MultiFinder compatible comm pgms now that perhaps my memory
expansion is on its way.

I have used the old (v 2.0?) VT PRO a lot, so I know what _it's_ like.
Things I couldn't live without:

excellent vt100 emulation,
flawless kermit, and xmodem xfers,
macro keys (for logins, etc.  I do have quickeys, but they can't wait for 
prompts)

Things I could easily live without: 
TEK emulation,
DG emulation, 
EMACS, VI mouses (never work _quite_ right anyway)

Things wanted:
Multifinder background U/Dloads (w/o bugs!)
Long XMODEM/KERMIT for quicker xfers (maybe WMODEM?)
