Yes, Diamondmm's site did say that SupraMax uses my PC's processing power to deliver
fast Internet connections.
I checked it, and SupraMax uses _9_ drivers from Rockwell. I think it's based on the
Rockwell 11229-14 chipset, as modems based on this chipset are not supported by
BeOS.(those and Winmodems are the only modems that are not supported by BeOS and the
same can be said for linux, I guess)
So I think I'm stuck with Win95 for the time being. :(
