This started with your assertion that you -> saw 4400 cps throughput with a fully-compressed file. No assertion was relayed. It was the actual cps rate under Terminate 1.4 with the cps rate adjustment set to 0% under a Zmodem transfer on a compressed file. I called the Sysop of the BBS to confirm this and this speed was confirmed. Sheesh people.... some of you need to get a life. I can't believe this continual bickering over a simplistic reality.

If it lights up yellow, you have AC present. By the way, a second source for that tester would be the local AT&T Phone Mate store or its equivalent.

Being a generic 28k8 Rockwell with EC, you should have no trouble installing it, but make sure you disable the relevant COM port in CMOS first, then install the port from "Add Hardware" (you're using a Pentium mobo, presumably)...
