[Moderator's Note: In the next three postings, Mssrs. Higdon and Elias
share with Digest readers a recent dialogue between them.   PT]

                       --------------------

In an earlier posting, John Higdon makes a reference to Sprint's lines
being "unusable for datacomm in Silicon Valley".

John, your statement is not true.  Be accurate if you feel like
pointing out inadequacies of any particular LD service.

Telebit is not the only modem in the world, you know!  There are
plenty of people in the Bay Area who use *other modems*, and they work
fine over Sprint connections.
