Well, I completely agree with Lee. I had a 14.4 Zoom (before they added the 
voice crap) which worked well, but never saw a good one after that. They went 
downhill.

I bought my USR Courier (external) in 1995. Flashed it to V34, X2, and V90, 
as each became available, and it's always gotten better. It's been through 3 
houses, many rooms, 3 MoBo's, several I/O cards, 4 ISP's, and works like a 
champ.

I've read your reasons for wanting an internal (the Courier was my first 
external), but personally, I'd move my grandma out of the way to make room for 

my Courier :)
