I don't know but, if it doesn't come out soon, I'm going to get a trailblazer out of frustration. My question about the modem is, can dsp programs be swapped in and out or will the device be busy when its a modem. When I tried to see what happens when two programs try to use the dsp, it brought the system down. I assume that the new libraries and stuff in 0.9 will take care of this. > Is 'tip' supported? Yes and its just as bad as it's always been. I hope they have a decent IB-type terminal app that is specifically for modems in the future. > Has 'kermit' been ported? NeXT does not include the source or binaries but I have got 4e070 running just fine. > Hugh
