I think it is the "if" in "if it is stored" that confused Bill
into thinking that you said that the Rockwell's didn't store the
speed in NVRAM.  It would have been better if you had replied
"Well the port speed IS stored in NVRAM, it CAN be recalled, but
Rockwell aren't as brain-dead as USR".  Fortunately I am 
well-versed enough in Rodspeak to take the above as not meaning
either without further clarification.  BFN.  Paul.
