	The serial controller can generate any baud rate:

		rate = (N+1) * 279.4 ns		(N: 0..32767)

	E.g. 109.2 to 3,579,098 baud.  However, the processor can only
shove data out so fast.  a lowly 68000 cannot read data at the maximum baud 
rate without overrun either.

	I recall a previous message asking about baud rates, but the path
was not on the arpa net (as this one is), and USENET mail bounced.
