Oh yeah, one more thing, Hayes >compatability is not important, but it would be nice if the >modem did have some command set for auto-dialing. I have had experience with a few 2400 baud modems... I have noticed that reliable error checking is lost in the cheaper modems but for the most part it doesn't create a big problem... Personally I think Racal-Vadic produces the best modems around but they do get expensive.. Best suggestion to you is get a copy of Computer Shopper put out by Computer Shopper of Titusville, Inc. 407 S. Washington Ave Titusville, FL 32796 It usually has very good prices and selection on most computer peripherals ... Hope it helped....... ...!topaz!andromeda!myers ><><><><>< myers@andromeda...
