I am sure they are great. BUT if one cannot get onto the Internet
what value are they.
In my situation I have been caught in a "Catch 22"
I checked the Help file and it said to check the internet for instaling
a modem. BUT untill I install the Modem I cannot get onto the Internet.
And if one asks i na Fido Echo they Bury you in Command Line stuff
that is meaningless to the to the guy starting out.
