I would like to hear from people who have played Falcon between two
computers.  A friend and I tried playing at 2400 baud but found it 
to be very `jumpy' in the padlock view.  Is this typical?

Has anyone tried at 9600 baud or better yet with a null cable?  (I
had heard rumours that there are bugs in the direct connection
protocol.)

Thanks in advance,
