I hate to be the one to correct this information, but someone has to do
it.  :-)   The product name is correct, but the speed and cost are not
nearly as correct as they should be.

Turbo ASB
---------
Do you have a high-speed modem, or other high-speed serial communications
device?
Did you know that most Serial Interface Cards for the Apple // are limited to
only 19.2k bps?

Well, they don't have to be anymore. The Turbo ASB can blow away that nasty
19.2k bps barrier. With the Turbo ASB, your serial communications can run as
fast as 230,400 bps!!!

The Turbo ASB is an add-on card replaces that pokey old 6551 chip on your
Serial Interface Card and transforms it into a speed demon.

The Turbo ASB supports all the standard bps rates you are used to, (slow...)
and adds 38.4k, 57.6k, 115.2k and 230.4k!

At this time the Turbo ASB is supported by ProTERM, Spectrum and ANSITerm.
The Turbo ASB includes a new 6551 chip that corrects a CTS bug in the
orginal 6551 design.

Pricing
-------
The Turbo ASB is $27.00 each.

Shipping and handling is as follows:

Within the U.S., $3.00 per order.
Canada and Mexico, $5.00 per order.
Everywhere else, $10.00 per order.

Include an E-Mail address if you have one. Monies need to be sent in US funds.
Wisconsin residents add appropriate Sales Tax.
