- I will have to go and check. It was my understanding that the Courier
- high
- end model uses a Motorola 68000 as the microcontroller. If it only uses
- the
- 80186 it is still probably a more expensive solution than our HyperModem
- which uses a Rockwell enhanced processor. In any event, if they are only
- using an 80186 they are really charging a premium for the product. It is
- questionable whether this product would offer any advantage over our Hyper
- for the price.
