I'm with you Richard. BTW, I like using 'less' better
Back to the original topic tho. Yes, USR invented Winmodems�, but they
make many models that aren't, including internal pci hardware modems.
Probly their best known, least expensive is the model #2977 56k fax/
modem, ~$38 up. OTOH, they make a lot of modems that go into 'ready
made' computers, and they are almost always winmodems (if you've got a
Dell with a USR modem it's a safe bet it's a winmodem). Somebody else in
this thread said 'linmodems, not a winmodem'. Linmodems are winmodems,
but with a software kludge that gets 'em to work with Linux about as well
a fake modem ever can, and at the expense of the rest of your system.
What can ya expect from a $2 winmodem (no matter what you got hoodwinked
into payin for it)?
