Hello: There have recently been some discussions on the Arachne List and also on the SURVPC List concerning the differences between the 16550 UART and the 16550A. I just happened to come accross some authoritative information on the subject, and I just decided to pass it along. "16550A: This is a replacement chip that fixes the bugs in the 16550 but is otherwise identical. The 16550A (or the updated 16550AF or 16550AFN) is the chip of choice for modems that support data transfer rates of 14,400 bps and up" -- Paul McFedries "Windows 95 Unleashed" (Indianapolis, SAMS publishing, 1997), p.813.
