ELSA, V90 EXTERNAL MODEM, $29.99

[Richard_Cranium72]

A IT tech at work likes Elsa products, so I got one of these.

After the techbargains $10.00 coupon, it's $20, Kewl.

Running it now, and it didn't even ask for the drivers disc on this ME powered machine.

BBBBBBBBBBBut it's a WIN modem! EEK! By the way, do know of a place where I can get canned air(dusters) in quantity like 12 or 24-can cases? I've looked high and low and am unable to track it down. I would appreciate any help. It's so expensive buying it 1 or 2 cans at a time and they don't last long. Been thinking about bringing my dry nitrogen bottle home from the shop.

Ive seen compressed air cans at all office supply stores, maybe try calling from your local phonebook...

Errr, Toad.

Does the word " EXTERNAL " mean anything ??

Does the word "Winmodem" and " PCI " kinda go together, or NOT ??

Unless you're running a 166mhz, even a "winmodem" will work, ok anyhow.

I've got lots of the little cpu sucking devices running, and when I check "System Monitor" there is NO noticble difference with the winmodem running or not.
Get online, check cpu%, trip the modem, check cpu%, COMPARE.

yEAH sure they draw a little, but most of us here have rather modern machines,, I think.. http://sysopt.earthweb.com/forum/smile.gif
