Awesome stuff!  You can probably get a higher baud rate though, just
not from Basic.  If you want to make a high-speed v2 of it, I don't
mind if you borrow the routines from AGS.  It has all the graphics
conversion, bootstrap, and high-speed (with compression) communication
writing for both the apple and PC/Mac side.  So all you'd have to do
is convert the web download part to Java. (but that's pretty
straightforward)
