Actually, 76800, I think. (And two nitpicks: (1) the chip itself is
capable of lots of different speeds, it's just that as used in Suns,
the clock feeding the baudrate generator constrains it; and (2) this is
all only if you run the chip in ÷16 mode; it does have a ÷1 mode, but
using it for input has a nasty tendency to produce framing errors.)
