- Here here!!.. I let go of my USR 14.4 because it sucked with
- my internet provider who had rack-mount Microcomm EPs. I
- rarely recieved a fax... I have a SupraFAX now, and its
- lovely, I was all smiles when I could talk to my ISP, and
- fax to my hearts content. We have a bunch of sportster
- 28.8s at work that we're replacing, becuase they won't talk
- to very many modems that our remote users have... Just
- don't buy USR at all..
