  Recently, DAK reduced the price of the modem to $149.00 we ordered
it at $169.00 ut was only billed the new lower price.  DAK is a very
friendly and good company.  I enjoy just reading their catalogs.  

BTW, I am president of a local Mac users group funded by Rutgers and
the invoice for the modem said DUCK.......$149.00.  I had a good time
eplaining to the College that we recieved a modem and not a duck.
