Interesting you should note this, the same problem only worse is true with
Stargate .... purchase/rental of buffer box, converter, plus installation
charges for cable, cable service fees, Stargate service fees, and so on ...

Atlease with 9600 baud modem technology it has a dual use of increasing
productivity with home/remote installations and all the other uses
modems have ....

Which is easier to justify????
