Nice writeup Marcus, thanks!

It should be noted though that CsCopy (a tool to permit reading and writing 360KB DSDD MS-DOS format diskettes on the Cromemco) requires Cromix+ to run, not the earlier 68000 or Z80 versions.

Also, the maximum speed for data transfer over a serial connection certainly depends to some extent on the I/O port, CPU, OS and software used, but it can certainly be faster than 4800 bps.
