Hoping someone can help - DG are you reading? I have a Data General Model One (stop snickering) laptop which requires the software to address, and thus correctly initialize the UART chip. The only problem(s) is/are that to upgrade the versions of DOS, you have to buy them from DG. Okay, so their mark-up is inflationary, the computer is obsolete and they will be no longer marketing the upgrades. They will, however, sell me the Programmer's Reference for the obsolete machine for a mere $45.00. I was wondering if anyone knows how to write a new program or modify the system files to correctly initialize the UART chip. Or, if someone has a copy of the Programmer's Reference could you forward the pertininent technical mumbo jumbo to me. Sure would appreciate the help.
