There is indeed a terminal emulator called RUMBA by Wall Data; there has
been some traffic regarding it as one of the possible terminal emulators
for the 3K. Last time I checked (they have released a new version
since), their Office for Win32 had an emulator for the 3K, but it was
16-bit. Hmmm.
Since the site is in another country and the product is in a different
marketing space, he should be able to keep the name. What I find odd is
that the name SAMBA comes from SMB, which Microsoft had a hand in and
uses in NT, whereas Rumba is just a play on that word, without a cool
acronym.
