You quoted something that didn't mention autobaud at all.  Which is just
typical of you.  Invent any old rubbish when you haven't got any facts to
support you.

BG> And as you don't even own a 
BG> Courier, I fail to see why this concerns you anyway.

I suppose we'll never see another comment from you about Netcomm modems, either?

BTW, isn't this the problem where you gave me a Bill Grimsley Guarantee
that I was absolutely definitely the only person in the entire world who
ever had, or ever would, suffer from USRs stupid autobaud implementation?

Don't worry, I've already used the piece of paper that Guarantee came on.
I'd give it back to you, except I don't exactly know where it ends up.
Probably Bondi Beach.  BFN.  Paul.
