Playing devil's advocate, here...Of course, most corporations that take
communications seriously are going to buy Couriers, not Sportsters, so
they're not going to need the Wizard, anyway, as long as 3com keeps
kicking out SDLs.  With OS/2, you can either unlock your port and run
the SDL in a DOS session, or you can fire up your ZOC or LW program, and
Xmodem it up to the modem.
