Heh. I can.
- works Apple only
- prepare to get sued. Why? I don't know yet, do I really need to?

- Want to develop for AppleMIDI? Sign up for the Developer Bullying 
Program (I believe it is called...), and prepare yourself for regularly 
jumping throuth firey hoops, because we, Apple, are so great that we can 
make you do it, and you'll even thank us for it.

functioning and we can't verify your worthiness of developing on our 
platform. The functioning of the development environment will cease 
until the device has been serviced."
Apple slave: "Yes, mistress, I love to obey! It's too bad you only have 
virtual boots!"

10x" (at least), and change nothing else? Perhaps some smart circuit 
could detect the speed and make things backwards compatible / menu 
option for TX.
