A number of us are still using Commodore and Atari computers.  Should 
Alpha--the avant-garde
amplifier company (their suggestion)--expand the new computer to accommodate 
them, too?  What
they're doing is not good marketing.  If Alpha is making a state-of-the-art 
amplifier, I would
expect it to be state-of-the-art.  I don't believe that it should require hams 
with today's
technology to retrofit their computers to allow serial ports.

Regarding USB troubles--they're there, but so are the troubles with serial 
ports.  Particularly
with IRQ assignments.  I prefer the USB.

Why bother with an upgrade if it ain't an upgrade.  Maybe the electronics will 
be an improvement.
