My personal experiences with USR modems is that the reason they tend to get
rumors of this sort started is because there are so many of them out there,
so if a tech support guy gets a call complaining about modem problems,
there is a pretty good chance the customer has a USR.
Statistically I believe you'll find USR products to be as reliable as any
of the consumer market modems. Your mileage may vary ...
