Looking at the USR's FAQ on x2, I don't see the benefit of that technology
for most people, and certainly not for 99% of Sysops; you would appear to
need a fully digital line for the server, hence ISDN minimum, which ISP are
more likely to have (but that is not a given, having seen some setups).

Cheers,
Poe
