[Amps] Alpha releases New Amp 9500

[John Adkins]

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.
