The salesman at the local compu-supermarket gave me to understand that my new Practical Peripherals 14.4k S/R fax-modem might be wasted on my vanilla A-2000 because of a sluggish serial device. I got it anyway because the price made it so easy, but is any improvement required? On some of the local 14.4-capable boards, Terminus has shown Z Modem transfer rates >1600 c.p.s. There doesn't seem to be a phone number for northern VA giving C.I.S. access >9600 bps, but Autopilot yields rates of Port 946 Date 909 Should I consider some upgrade? If so, what are the likely candidates?
