I haven't heard ANYONE who's in the Supra Division of Diamond that's professed their love for the merger. I'm sure you'll hear the same from USR employees after a year or two. ;-) BTW... 3Com (interestingly enough) did exactly what Diamond did... took over the website of the modem arm. A link to "www.usr.com" now gets you a page that tells you to go to www.3com.com. Sound familiar?

Moderator: (position available, contact netmail) Last updated: 11/11/97 Echo Topic, Rules and Policies: 1 - This echo is for users, buyers, sellers and all those concerned with any Supra/DiamondMM modem, their operation, configuration & setups, repair and upgrades. Users of other makes (ie Zooms, USRs, etc) are welcome provided that their postings refer to connection and interfacing with Supra or DiamondMM modems. Representatives from Supra frequent this echo. English is the official language of the echo. 2 - Do not be annoying and do not be easily annoyed (no FLAMES). 3 - Aliases are not allowed. Please post using your real name. If you aren't sure, check your birth certificate. The only exception to this rule are the Supra Technical Support accounts. 4 - Avoid creating unneeded traffic. Here's a list of basic "No-no's": No: BBS ads, 'test' messages, "where are you from" chains, multiple tearlines, replies to off-topic messages, encrypted messages, PGP sigs, multiline sigs or taglines, playing moderator (unless you -are- the moderator), additional headers/footers in messages, hi-ascii/ascii or ANSI "artwork" (we really -don't- care to see it), uuencoded files, BBS "color codes" or over-quoting in your replies. If a program (reader, tagline mgr, etc.) is adding a lot of extra junk to messages, please DON'T use it here. (The moderator will decide what's "extra junk", and let you know.) "Internet-style" (large) signatures are -greatly- unwelcome, as well as listing every email account or FTN-type address you have. Leave it out, please. Signatures should be no more than one -short- line please. 5 - Common courtesy applies at -all- times. If you want to argue with, or complain to someone, do it in netmail or email. 6 - This echo may not be gated (in or out) to any other FTN-style network, or the internet, without without prior permission of the moderator. Authorized gates will be published in the ELIST*.* listing for this echo. Changes will be made to this list, as needed. Input is welcome, but via netmail only, please! (Arguing about moderator decisions/rules is NOT welcome in the echo... please use netmail if you feel you must do so.)

The "Express" line has been out for a long time. I tested a 14400 modem ages ago that was similar to the current Express line. PH> but then I guess your Origin line (Supra Beta site) says it all. It does? Funny, all it says to be is I beta test for Supra. It doesn't mean I kiss the behind if DiamondMM, nor do I care for Diamond. I -do- care for Supra, and find them to be good modems. My beta Express 56i performs head to head with the USR X2 modem I'm testing it against. (Sometimes faster) However, this means nothing to the echo... the echo is for Supra discussion, and Zoom (last time I looked) wasn't a part of Supra, so let's leave that for the Zoom echo, shall we?
