After sending this message, I thought I ought to post it here also.   
      
    This message was from ED VANCE to JEFF SALZMAN   
    originally in conference  General   
    and was forwarded to you by ED VANCE.

   Jeff,   
      
   I never could go above a 1200 connection.   
      
   First I used a Packard-Bell PB2400 and later a USR 28.8 but never was   
   able to get higher than a 1200 connect.   
      
   I also had a Super Snapshot v5 cartridge that had a 2400 baud modem in   
   it but never got it to go up to 2400.   
      
   I haven't had my 64 dial up anything for a long long time.   
      
   I have a Dial Up option on my DSL account but never thought to try to   
   dial that number using the 64.   
      
   The Terminal I have is Bobs Term Pro, but I would think all the HTML   
   garbage would cludder up the screen if I tried dial up on the internet.   
      
   As Mike said there is a CBM echo here and I read it but haven't posted   
   anything much.   
      
   Stephen Walsh has been posting the Commodore Free magazine in CBM from   
   www.commodorefree.com .   
      
   Here are a few C= web sites I've learned of recently:

   ken.krother.com/1802/Stand-Alone/Comm64/index.htm   
      
   Some of the web sites are real interesting what is going on for the   
   C=64 PC.
