[Logic] SERIAL PORT ERROR?

Fri Sep 10 14:40:25 EDT 2004

Thanks for the tip Bob. I will look into it.
However, barring any other breakthrough in the next few days, I think I'm
gonna do a "system restore" back a week or so and see if the problem goes
away...that would at least isolate the installation of LOGIC7.
Will post the next chapter of this saga as it happens!
Thanks and 73
