Cheap modems aren't bad if you know a WHOLE LOT about computers. I've made that cheap ass Tiger modem work just fine on several occasions, but it sometimes took a ton of tweaking to get it to work. Tiger was of absolutely no help - their technicians are brain-dead! Also, never buy anything from Tiger Direct that you even THINK you may have to return. Their returns dept. is worse than useless. Tiger sent me a WRONG part - totally wrong. I called them and they told me I had to speak with MY salesman (gee, I kind of felt special.) Unfortunately, after 4 failed attempts at contacting this worthless piece of semi-human trash I decided to drop the issue (the part was only $7.00). A friend of mine had a similar bad experience trying to return something; only this was a computer motherboard. He finally had to get an attorney to write them a letter, after which they took the return. -- Andrew M.
