Somewhat off-topic, but perhaps applicable.... If a modem is a device for MOdulating/DEModulation, and a "winmodem" turns that job over to the software (Windows), is that not grounds for a class-action fraud suit against winmodem manufacturers for marketing them as modems (modulator/demodulators)? Or are winmodems really doing the mod/demod and Windows just does other necessary processing? Just a thought....
