You wouldn't happen to have a reference would you? > >Thought not. > Well I was refering to a local wholesaler, and an old article which appeared a few months ago (I believe it was in Computer Shopper - but I could be wrong). Also from personal experience since I'm in the retail business. I've worked and dealt with ZOOM, Zyxel, Supra, Telebit, USR, BOCA, Cardinal and a few more v32bis modems and it seemed that the ZOOM ones would be returned more often than the rest due to incompatibility problems. Anyhow I guess it's all a matter of personal experience. I used to love ZOOMS 2400 and 9600 baud modems ( I had and still have a few of them), they were VERY reliable in my case, but when I took the plunge into their v32bis ones - NO Way. Maybe in newer ROM revisions they fixed all the probelms, but initially the ones I had (2 of them) were a nightmare... Oh Well... Anyhow, Happy Holidays...
