Not too many though.  In fact, I'd rate the Spirit as being one of the most
troublesome V.32bis modems ever made (and never fixed by Digicom either),
with Maestros a fairly close second.  Of course, I have totally excluded
any reference to Interlink, as one of the main prerequisites of a modem is
that they're supposed to work at least some of the time, and they don't.

Sorry if it appears that I'm slagging off at your modem, but I am.  |-)

Regards, Bill
