[net.micro] Perils of Public Domain Software - part 2

I've been in contact with Pete Galvin at UTEXAX-20 concerning the lu.exe
program that torched my monitor.  He kindly loaded the same version into
his pc and ran it without any problems.  I'm still at a loss to understand
what happened, although Pete and I are still looking into it.  I don't know
what configuration Pete has, but I had an XT with 640K of memory, a
Hercules board, 2 async ports running Dos and Venix with the Connector. 
(Don't bother with this one, but that's a story for another night.)  If you
have a similar setup, you may want to pause befor hitting return.
