A bbs sysop friend of mine has had bad experiences with supra modems dying on
him, but since they have a 5 year warrenty, he got so that he'd call up, and
they'd send him a new modem next day air... I've had a Supra 2400 that I
love, and my second line is running a Supra 14.4E... :) Their tech support is
still wonderful, too!

Hmm... My supra works great at 33.6, just waiting for the replacement 56k
modem to show up (the ROM couldn't be flashed, too old a modem and it was
bought new). *laugh*
