I agree, save them for the Post-Internet world. Same with Dickens 
Terminal servers. I had two and powered 8 modems for my BBS with them. 
9600 baud using only text/telnet Linux logins rulz. You cannot read any 
faster than that. Plus, I still have my MudOS software ready to install. 
COLOR ASCII and everything!!

I had the 8 modems, and 8 terminals local, all with users logged in to a 
486DX2-66 and everyone enjoyed full speed connect. Ah, the glory days! 
One day BBS's will save us all ...again.  :0 Ric
