1. Get to: http://209.15.131.106/cgi-bin/price_lit.cgi This is www.aluf.co.il. They have both USR ISA (although they call it "MODEM USR 56.6 AYSA+FAX ") for 75$ and "MODEM HARDWARE 56.6+FAX " for 56$. 2. I have seen USR 56k modem ( probably PCI ) in Office Depot. According to the price - 350 NIS it was a hardware modem. Best Regards, Unix IS user friendly, it is just selective about who his friends are.
