When I applied for Spectrum (SM) access, Chase Manhattan denied the
application because the software wasn't compatible with my AT&T 4000
modem.  What a shock.  I was under the impression that AT&T played some
historical role in the development of modems.

It was very disappointing to learn that my splendid little modem was
a dud to the Chase Home Banking and Information System. :-(
