-
- Are well-known brands of modems worth the price?
-
- I have noticed a considerable price difference between
- the "big name" brands of modems (like Hayes & Telebit),
- and the lesser-known ones with similar capabilities.
- Are there any advantages to paying extra money for a
- big name brand of modem?
-
- Two modems I'm presently considering purchasing are the
- Logicode Quicktel 1414XV, and a similar one from Boca.
- If anybody thinks this would be a poor choice, please
- let me know.
-
- Thanks in advance.
