- Well, first of all I really enjoy using USR Sportsters.. They give
- awesome CPS rate. Secondly, how do you plan on sticking 4 internals
- in your computer, and where did you get all these free IRQ's????
- Also, alot of BBS Software has problems with irregular comm ports and
- irqs. If you are going to run that many nodes, I would recommend
- using a DigiBoard and 4 externals, or you could buy MBBS and use their
- modem board which is alot better than the Digiboard...

- Just my oppinion though... :)
