Nope... we've had X-modem since the dark ages...

The problem is that this X-modem capability can ONLY be used IF you use DOS to
download some USR doo-hickey that will then enable your modem to run on the
X-modem flash thingy... So, we are STILL blocked out by USR being incredibly
stupid, bass-ackwards, and lacking in vision. I expected better from them --
boy, was I sadly mistaken.
