Well, then, I guess winmodems were on the right track after all, eh?
Um, the problem with winmodems wasn't that they ran in software.
It was the fact that they were completely undocumented and had no way to
write a non-Windows driver for them.
Even worse was that we had a perfectly fine de facto standard (the Hayes
Smartmodem command set) that those stupid winmodems displaced so that
the manufacturers could save a couple pennies (which it's not clear they
saved given the problems and support costs those winmodems caused)
