Modems worked for me. ;-) My parents (well, mother and stepfather) got together via the same BBS they later bought and operated. :) CyberSpace BBS, in Grand Rapids, MI. 616-454-7800 was the base number for the hunt group. Doubled as an early dial-up ISP. Got my first bit of tech support experience answering the support line; we supported any OS, as long as I could figure out how to set up your DUN over the phone. Not many ISPs offered to support Dreamcast. :) -- :wq
