1916.0. "Speed of async/parallel ports" by ANNECY::FICHTER () Mon Apr 07 1997 10:15

    A customer is asking me the speed of the two Asynch. com port and 
    the parallel port on the AlphaStation 255/233
    
    Have you got this information?

    Note that each operating system has its own idea about what features of
    the serial and parallel ports are supported.
    
    Note 66 has some information about the asynchronous serial ports used
    on the early AlphaStations -- it's probably about the same on the
    AlphaStation 255, since it uses the same UARTs.
    
    Maybe someone else can answer for the parallel port.
