- We bought USR rackmounts Dual Standards and then Telebits in racks.
- They're 14.4's and you can have them both for $800. (21 modems total).

- If I had to do it again I'd get Central Data racks with PCMCIA modems,
- you can always sell those to the notebook crowd and everything is much
- more compact.
