Scrapps Hate to see you having trouble with your computer. I have a Dell 200 XPS that I bought about a year ago and I'm very happy with it, even the USRobotics modem. I've been thinking of buying another computer and give this one to my wife and daughter. Keep working on Dell, they are usually good with customer support. Eric

SAY WHAT?? Dell calls it a USR Modem, BUT 3Com calls it a Dell modem!! Does that mean the INTC Processor is a Dell? How bout the STB Video board, also a Dell? If you trade in your Internal modem and get an external will it say Dell on it? 3Com modems which are included with a computer manufacturer's system are built to the computer manufacturer's specifications, and are not the same as standard Sportsters Oh really? I would sure like to know what those specifications are?? What, do they swap out TI chipsets and put in ROK Cheap Chips&reg ? Man I'm real confused. I guess I've lost or never had an understanding of OEM. Sheesh, after reading all this I'm dizzy too! Derek
