1. it works with 1.2. 2. it works with external ram hooked up. Under 1.1 it simply doesn't break down, and under 1.2 it uses proper autoconfig ram to allow up to 640k in pcdos. 3. If you have a comm program that doesn't need certain waits built in, you can set at-pref to eliminate waits built in – comm will now go somewhat faster. 4. The at-pref menu has the bullshit (based on the original specs that cbm abandoned) removed. 5. More reliable. By the way, speedy?.com shouldn't do any good under recent versions of pcdos – it only helps the antiquated version of dos. Ron
