something interesting; i have an AT&T Paradyne 14.4K
external modem that has a (dedicated) 68020
(i think at 12Mhz/FPU) CPU -- scary to think when the
duo has a 68040/33Mhz [NO FPU!] (the 280c i have does
anyway) for not only modem function but for general
purpose (ie the whole computer) use... kinda defeats
the purpose of having a built in modem at all....
btw, does anyone know what the number of the torx bit
is that is required to get into these things? (the
power connector went bad) or is it time to get the
dremel out? (i'd give it to someone on this list...
but i want the harddrive out first... since this
little annoyance has been nothing but an annoyance and
there is basically nill as far as freeware goes
in the mac world... [i dont think mac programmers have
heard of the concept])

Boy they weren't kidding when they said the built in
14.4 modem on the
Duo 2300c was pure garbage. Requiring the computer
to handle tasks
that the modem should take care of was a bad idea.
Speedometer tests I
did showed performance in many cases cut nearly in
half - just by being
connected to the internet (no other programs
running)!!! Incredible!
Is there something I can replace this with? Do
those 19.9 global
village modems have the same problems? Does anybody
know where I can
still buy one (at any price)??
