"not a screaming cpu" On the one hand TS-DOS can timeout on delays. I think the glug-glug performance of Wifi and Bluetooth makes it not work. On the other hand, it's possible and Steve is concerned that a fast sender could overrun the Model 100's receive buffer when responding to . TPDD packets are about 128 bytes maximum, while the Model 100's receive buffer is 64-bytes. Unrelated, TS-DOS likes to give up because of DSR deasserted, another complicating factor.
Since TPDD emulators have been functional for decades on hardware as old as TRS-80 desktop PCs, so who knows. As to Powermac I'd be more concerned the emulator causing buffering delays. I wonder if TEENY uses the receive queue or it does direct I/O? That's always a good diagnostic tool. You cannot trip up its timeouts, because it doesn't implement any. So if TEENY has problems I think it would mean buffer overrun on receive. -- John.
