Thanks Tom, I forgot about that. I guess I'm from the old school. I can
usually tell when the handshake
isn't going well because I've landed on one of the flakey modems at my ISP.
A quick abort and redial
can be done without having to wait on the modems to figure out they can't
talk.
(On second thought, maybe its just my impatience to get connected.)
