One thing that rocks about the USR is that there is an internal model. 
Internal meaning it uses it's own serial port.. meaning it's not bounded
by the 115.2k serial port rate for PC's.  I believe that it does have the
standard USR AT command set (Hayes), and functions as a regular V.34+
33.6k analog modem as well.  We had some brochures at work and this all
comes from memory (if it serves)..

Right... I wondered what they're talking about, as well.

Ditto.  Anyone out there flying this bird?  I'd also be interested in 
some Linux results, as well.  Since Linux is the only operating system 
that matters, DOG/LOSE/LOSE'95 results are irrelevant (no offense to 
users of these proprietory systems intended).
