One important piece of information was missing in my article: Graphon Corporation 1980 Concourse Drive San Jose, CA 95131 800-472-7466 408-435-8400 (outside the U.S.) And, it should be pointed out that the OptimaX 200 needs an error free RS232 link. Therefore you'll need an error correcting modem if you plan on using it with a modem. It would have been nice if Graphon had included an optional mode in their server/terminal protocol to have the server and terminal run their own error correction. This would have allowed you to run it across a lousy line or an older modem. Hopefully this will be addressed in the future. Finally, an interesting thought strikes me that if these terminals become popular enough who knows what the ever innovative Telebit Corporation might be able to do along the lines of spoofing the Graphon protocol? ...
