I've had experience with around a dozen Vadic modems, 10 of them in a rack
unit, and three of them the 2400 baud Hayesish variety, and most of the
failures I've seen have been power-supply related.  Perhaps if they
woke up and put some recent technological advances, like ON/OFF switches,
on their modems I'd have a better feeling towards them.
