- I see a customer who didn't do his homework before
- buying and now wants the company to bend over backwards

- I purchased the Vi modem based on extensive research putting out the extra
- money to purchase from a company that had been known for it's customer support
- and it's support for upgrading drivers and equipment. The question is why for
- this one model of modem is there no support? I'm sure you'd be howling if
- you'd purchased a regular sportster then found it was one of a few that
- couldn't be upgraded, while other models could. This was pure and simply a
- marketing mistake by USR that I and other Vi owners are paying for.
