PPI (Boca Research and Hayes) has very good fame on producing excellent
and stable modems.
I've a couple of questions:
1.) Is 33.6 practical? How is the throughput compared w/ 28.8?
2.) Other than the buggy USR Sportster 33.6, is there any other
similar but much more stable (in Win95) choices priced around HK$2,000?
I'm currently using GVC FM144. I've very few complaints so far.
Rgds,
