- I don't know much about Supra, but Twincom has a modem/fax identical to the one
- you listed above (well, it has the same features) for $269 new. It only has a
- 2 year warranty, though. It is listed in September's Computer Shopper on page
- 661 in the Direct MICRO ad. Direct MICRO is offering a 30 satisfaction
- guarantee - your choice of money or replacement. Has anyone heard anything
- about Twincom? I seem to think I've heard of the name before, but haven't
- heard anything about the company.

- Thanks!
