				a friend of mine told me that you can
get a USR Dual Standard for something like $400 if you keep a BBS
running for something like three months with it . after that , you're
free to do with it what you want .

				and as far as high - speed modems are
concerned , i'm surprised that no one ( that i've seen ) has mentioned
the telebit trailblazer , which can actually go up to 19.6 Kb/s
_without_ data compression ( to the best of my recollection ) . it can
only do this with another trailblazer , however . again , this is to the
best of my recollection , anm may be wrong ...
