Greetings!

I'm considering finally going to a 2400-baud modem, and I wanted to learn a
bit more about the new protocols that are around that do data compression
and error correction, such as MNP-5.  Does anybody out there know of a good
magazine article or such that would bring me up to speed on these things?

And while I'm here, I know that there was a lengthy discussion on various
2400-baud modems a little while ago.  Does anybody have a summary of the
final consensus?  Thanx in advance on both counts.


Tired of watching the characters crawl by,
