Just been issued a pair of those at work to get going.  Results are as
advertised - bloody good.

One is currently coping with my miserable line and doing a bang-up job of
it - either that or there's been a random "fix it" campaign by
Telstra (flap, oink.)

Gave me a quiet and productive half hour on the internet, with steady
transfers over 3k.  The existing Microcom would normally drop the line in
disgust within the first 15 minutes.  

Did a BBS call, got 31200 connect, solid, no errors, full speed.  

If it stays this troublefree, it's ranking as one of the best I've seen.

Spirit Dragon.  New release, apparently Rockwell.  I'm loosing my allergy
to Rockwell.

Dave Hatch.
