If you've not done it yet, this may still be some use...

I use a Digi Datafire which was about 300 UKP from Westbase.

I know that sounds a lot,  but whaen I asked about using Teles under NT,
the card was cheap and the driver was more expensive than the card !

Under those circumstances, the Digi, which, for what it's worth is a
smarter card seemed like a sensible deal as MS support it under NT 4.0 !

About 8k / sec into a twin P/200 with fast SCSI disks.

As far as I know this is in a state of flux.  It was but I could never
make it work.  I gather that Demon are now planning to charge more for
this service.
