Expensive minutes ;-)
 - for Apple user NCU is via AppleTalk over ethernet, so
ethernet is limited to 230.000 in theory - in praxis and measured its
20-35% less.
.. On PC you can use the serial with 115000. As there is much of the time
used for
writing the packages dates etc the real winnings in transmission time arent
that great.
