Dear Roger,

Re your messages regarding some unspesified Diamond 28.8 (V.34 ? ) modem.

 => Whats to report?? I would have thought saying that they were 'your
 => usual Taiwanese piece's of crap' would have been enough. If you want

Taiwan is the world leader in the production of computers, peripherals, IT
devices, etc.  There may be some "crap" coming out of Taiwan, but
it ¨certainly isn't modems. ¨
=> to go buy one, I'm not here to stop you, but IMO paying a bit more
=> for a reputable name is a better idea...

Diamond has 11 Austel approved modems, with four more on the way, plus a
¨4-in-1 modem for ISPs and Commercial/Hobby BBS use.  These modems are made
by ¨some of the biggest modem makers in the world.  For example, GVC the
biggest ¨modem manufacturer in Taiwan.

These are all reputable modem makers.  Diamond has a three year warranty
with ¨no extra charges, (unlike some such as Mike Bourne Electronics who
advertises ¨a 5 Year Warranty, but after you buy and open the box you find
that anything ¨over two years requires extra payments).  Diamond also has a
14 day No ¨Questions Asked money back guarantee for direct sales.  Surely
only a ¨reputable company could offer these.

The Diamond Group started back in 1985 as Diamond Technology Products.  To
be ¨abound for 10 years means it must have been selling some good products.

Cheers,

John (The Diamond Group)
