Eh, I personally have had no end of troubles with iCab, crashing and such. Some people seem to share my experiences while others swear by iCab, so there must be something different ;) > I once tried one of those external USR 56K modems and frankly prefer the > Diamond Supra for speed.

USR originally promoted X2, but by now any 56k modems should be v.90 compatible. If it's not, there should be a firmware/drive upgrade avaiable to make it full v.90. Even so, if he's getting connected at 53k, X2 vs. v.90 shouldn't be a huge difference. Maybe some. > As for NC4.8, you can slim it down considerably by trashing all the > modules you're not gonna use before you start the install process.

That by itself is almost enough to make me use it most of the time. > Bob F Scott Holder ---------- Duo/2400 List, The friendliest place on the Net! A listserv for users and fans of Mac subportables.
