I suppose that's where the issue is. USR actually made really good
consumer modems for a while, but around the time of 56k modems, I
seem to remember the quality really going down the tubes for the
consumer gear.
At least they weren't the only ones going down the tubes in terms
of quality then, because as I recall that's when the Internet was
really becoming mainstream; I imagine the requirements of producing
ever-larger quantities of stuff for the unwashed masses catches up
to everyone in the end. :-)
