Woohoo! It is about time! I'm going to get rid of this damned real modem that I have now, and walk^H^H^H^H_RUN_ to the nearest store that sells PC-TEL Linmodems, and buy one immediately.
They've done a great thing for the Linux community now, and deserve to be supported. Now if we could just convince 3Dfx to create LinVoodoo III cards, we'd really be rocking. Just imagine, your CPU acting as the main chip on the Voodoo III card! I'll bet you could burn two CD's at once on a single IDE channel while having a game of Quake II on a 200Mhz system (online of course with your Linmodem).
Lets all try and get as many companies as possible to create peripherals that contain not even one atom of silicon - just wires. Hey - 1Ghz CPU's are just around the corner right? Gotta have something for them to do...
