Here's one for Commodore-Amiga to answer:

   Where did the MIDI baud rate go?

When I got a demonstration of the Amiga in the store, the salesperson selected
[Prefer(?)ences] and stepped through the serial baud rates, 110, 300, ...,
19200, MIDI(!).  I'm very interested in interfacing to a KORG Poly-800
synthesizer that I own, so naturally I thought to myself, 'this is the machine
I've been looking for: MIDI interface built-in'.  After a week of playing with
ABasiC windows and upgrading my Epson printer with Graphtrax for TextCraft,
I pulled up [Prefer(?)ences] and stepped through the baud rates, 110, 300, ...,
19200, 110(!!!).  Where did MIDI go?  I know I'm beginning to sound like a
chronic complainer, but is MIDI now an option?  If so, why was it in the demo?
If it's not an option why isn't the baud rate in [Prefer(?)ences]?  I'm
confused and getting frustrated.
