Hi all. Thanks to everybody who responded to my message. For anyone who
is interested; apparently the sysop deal is still on. You have to call
the US Robotics BBS which is at (312) 982-5092 (I haven't tried it yet,
so call at your own risk). The sysop price for a 9600 baud modem is
around $450 for an HST modem and a bit more for V.32 compatible modems
(these are prices from last February). You have to download the order
form and send it in. Be aware that there is a difference between V.32
and HST protocols at 9600 baud. USR sells a dual standard modem if this
is important to you.
Thanks again for all the info,
Mike
