- hi. i've read a TON of the messages on this board -0 it's great
- for someone who knows very little about modems. all i knew was
- my 1200 has worked for a long time, and i quickly learned
- what things i want, etc. anyhow, i was told that supra was
- good, until i read everything going on with supra, and
- their problems with the modem. so...having said that...
-
-
- i had previously decided that i wanted, above all, these
- conditions: 14,400 bps, with v32 bis/v42 bis, with fax
- capability (and the appropriate software), a warranty
- for more than 3 years, and other things being optional.
- but ability NOT to crash for unknown reasons is a major
- thing for me, right behind the warranty and the external factor.
-
- so zyxel seems to me, from reading everything, to be the
- modem to buy. my 2 questions:
-
- 1) what is wrong with it, if anything?
- 2) how can someone (on the list i saw on the net) be able to afford
- to sell it for $339 when the ad in computer shopper lists it for
- $469?
-
- thanks - bob gaj
