I did the same thing recently (Check my review of terminal programs a few
weeks ago) and found Telix to be fantastic except for one major flaw ...
it's too damned slow to use at 9600 baud.

For the few times that I use a modem, it's great.  But most of the time I
use a direct-connect line to the local Sun, and it's just far too slow.
