I'm one of the people who had a winmodem before I even got into Linux. I was young, jobless, and a new modem was costly to me. But I bought one anyway, just because my modem kept disconnecting under a lot of CPU load, and because I couldn't play modem-to-modem Quake, and I loved it. I'll never go back to a winmodem, nor will I recommend that filth to anyone. It's worth the money. Even if you use Windows, it's worth the money. -- "If you continue running Windows, your system may become unstable." -- Windows 95 BSOD Dwayne C.
