I'd recommand ZOOM over Supra... after the ordeal trying to configure a
Diamond Supra internal modem (what daya think, it's a PnP)... it is
virtually impossible to configure the IRQ and com port without using W95,
and even with that, it is still a pain... an EXTERNAL ROCKWELL chipset based
modem if you want 56K Flex, if you wanna X2, get USR Courier... (easy+cheap
upgrade)...
