Hmm, I have an unenhanced //e with a SuperSerial card in it. The slower I
go, the bigger the problem gets: characters start disappearing when I get
down to 1200. The string WELCOME TO on my logon prompt says WLCOMEO when
attempting 1200bps. The promblem does not seem to be apparent when in
full-screen applications such as the mail client I use, mutt, but is very
apparent when using the standard terminal.
