What do you mean? Does anyone know what this is about?
I know about WinModems, all "winmodems" are certainly hardware
modems, but different from the ones that have intelligence left in,
that don't off load the work to the CPU to save fifty cents in
chips, and don't require a propriatary driver that are also hardware.
I thought the usage here was "hardware modem" meant modems that
don't off load to the CPU and don't require a propriatary driver, so
either already work under Linux or can be made to do so by some good
soul writing a drivers?
What does he mean "hardware modem that don't work under Linux"? I
HOPE that is an oxymoron, but given the rapacity of some companies,
I fear the worst.
I would normally edit the message in a reply, but someone may be
able to decipher what these folks are talking about for me from the
stuff I left in.
