Keywords: Is a winner emerging??


I have read of various 9600 baud modems with different (noncompatible)
protocols, but have not heard anywhere if any of these is becoming
a standard.  I even read something on USENET from fidonet about
6 months ago describing their efforts to establish a 9600 baud standard, 
but haven't ran across anything else about it.

So is there a clear winner emerging?  I'd hope this question wasn't
answered last week as I don't get to monitor this group all the time.
We might get a 9600 baud modem in our next budget but need to know the
score.  Please don't reply if you have a financial interest in any
of the involved companies.  Thanks!
