Umm...I have a DataLink 2400 in my IIe, and I don't think it will work in a Mac
or Messy-DOS machine, unless those machines now take Apple II expansion
cards :-) .  The DataLink Express, however, will work with just about any 
computer in existence.  I think that the DataLink Express's fax-modem option
will only work on the Apple II, though.

You do make many valid points regarding AE (such as warranties), but Apple's in
the middle of a shakeup.  Before we continue in the usual flame war that has
become a daily ritual with Apple, maybe we should give the folks in Cupertino
time to get their acts together and see if they've magically had a change of
heart.  Whaddya say?
