I also forgot to mention that most people now use not what does the job,
but what is *there*. What is *there* on the machine, is determined by
corporate deals, not the needs and desires of the individual user. Anyone who
bought a modem in the pre-28.8k days knows of the ever-present "terminal"
program "Bitcom." The first thing that people suggested to new modem users or
that they did when they bought a new modem was shred the bitcom disk and get a
real terminal client like Telnet, Terminate, Telemate, Procomm, etc.
IE, an inept user doesn't look beyond what is given and, more often than
not, what is given is complete and utter crap.
