    It isn't proof because only one of those tasks can get at the SLIP/PPP
connection over the modem at one time.  So only one task needs to be active at
an given time.  I mean, hell, I telnet, IRC had three FTP's going all at once
on OS/2.  Big deal.  The lowest common demoninator in that is my 14.4k
connection to my ISP.  What does all this prove?  Your SLIP/PPP software
works.
