Message-ID: <1990Jul9.195528.1689@agate.berkeley.edu> Date: 9 Jul 90 19:55:28 GMT Sender: usenet@agate.berkeley.edu (USENET Administrator;;;;ZU44) Distribution: usa Organization: ucb Lines: 26 I saw this modem on the catalog of J&R Music World. It's a Zoom MX-2400 and listed at $99.95 which is a pretty good deal in my opinion since modems for Mac seem to be priced a bit higher than the PC modems. Now, couple of questions. Is this modem reliable? Yeah, I noticed that it comes with a 7-year warranty, but a reliable modem with 1-year warranty is better than a troublesome one with multi-year warranty, IMHO. Also, it comes with communication software Quicklink. How is this software? Finally, is there a better deal? Better modem at a comparable price, same modem at a better price, whatever. I need your input to make a decision. Yes, I live on peer pressure, constantly. Please reply via e-mail, I don't like to read a news group when I have to junk 90% of it every time I read it. Thanks a bunch. G'day, ...b.o.b...
