PC> So you saying my USR should really have 3' high fins lots of chrome

 PC> and a huge V8 under the hood  hmm i could live with that.

 SA> Just wack a big Heatsink, couple of FANS, Place a couple of dead 486

 SA> CPU's  on and a Heap of LED's and you will have a powerfull looking

 SA> modem..  :) 



And don't forget the 500,000 volt insulators and the HUGE busbar-type

power switch.  :)

NB: plugging it into your C64 will spoil the 'macho modem' effect...



USR's adverts imply that only mindless speed freaks deserve one of 

their modems.  The wally shown driving the thing reminds me of those

kids in their hot Falcons - wasting good rubber in vain attempts to

outpace my Kawasaki.... Do you drive a Falcon?  :>
