Advantages of ISDN #1:  no more converting digital data to analog, which
then gets digitized for transmission, then converted back to analog at
the other end, and finally runs through a DSP to convert it to digital.
This is a practice that makes computerfax look sane!

Make a private call (either through cancel-caller-ID, or by routing the
call through the operator or the long-distance service of your choice).

When was the last time you ordered a pizza without giving them your 
address and phone number anyway?
