I just heard a very disturbing rumuor which I hope is bogus.  Some I know said
he talked to US Robotics and they said that Hayes was just awarded the
Standard for 9600 and therefore they are stopping production of the HST and
getting rid of excess inventory.   Is this true?  
I can see how Hayes can be called the standard since HST's outnumber them by
so many.  What did they do, bribe someone?

Please tell me this is false.  PLEASE!
