Peripherals to surge with Win 98: Peripheral vendors--companies that specialize in modems, digital cameras, add-in cards, and the like--will likely experience an upswing in business following Microsoft's Windows 98 rollout, since the new operating system will bring built-in support for a number of emerging hardware technologies. In modems, there's 3Com's US Robotics Sportster external 56-kbps fax/modem, a device with speakerphone capability and a $249 price tag. Analysts expect some cable and DSL (digital subscriber line) modems to be available by the end of the year as more regions around the United States begin offering high-speed access services. Mitel and Nortel will offer phones with USB connections that permit users to manage all of their voice and data through the PC. USB is the way to go. I'm glad to see COMS on top of this. news.com
