From: utzoo!decvax!duke!harpo!npoiv!npois!cbosgd!mark Newsgroups: net.news Title: 2400 baud modems Article-I.D.: cbosgd.2488 Posted: Tue Aug 3 10:31:42 1982 Received: Wed Aug 4 03:06:50 1982 It has been suggested that some of the backbone sites of USENET get the new Vadic 2400 baud modems to transfer news. Cost appears to be nearly $2000 each, and each site probably would need at least two (1 for dialup and 1 for dialout). Of course, if you got lots of them, you could use them for dialing up from home as well. Anybody have any opinions? Is the cost too high for some backbone sites? Mark
