- I just had the 1.63 lock up on me last night, as well as 3 of the
- 1.61s, *and* one of the USR 33.6 modems. I actually didn't want the
- 33.6, I just wanted regular 28.8, but my boss ordered them on his own,
- and was apparently unable to order the ones I kept pointing to in the
- catalog.

- It seems like someone last night has some crummy modem, and decided to
- dial into line after line in the modem pool and lock up all my
- modems. The only reason he didn't them all is cuz the first 3 were
- already being used.
