On 12-Jan-99 Arto Huusko spoke unto us all:
#  I was thinking about buying a new modem to replace my old 14.4K and
#  obviously cheap, good and fast alternative is 56K PCI modem.

I thought this too for about 5 days.  These 5 days were spend utilizing the
return policy at COMP USA, and attempting to get a modem that worked.  I tried
5 PCI 56k modems.  Each one bombed out, because lo and behold.. they were all
"winmodems".

As a matter of fact.. it is near impossible to find a non-winmodem these days..
disgusting.
