No, I'm sure that I have an original unupgraded //c. Besides the PEEK(64447)
result, which gives 255, I'm the original owner of the machine (my parents
bought it for me twenty years ago), and I can say for sure that it has not been
serviced a single time.

On the other hand, the tech note you quote doesn't say anything about a bug in
the serial port firmware being corrrected in the 'ID $00' ROM, so this makes me
think that the issue is a hardware one (Howard told a few messages ago that it
was an oscillator crystal, which is probable). Anyway, thanks for the link.
