OBM

[Alex S. Crain]

	Lessee... 512K of memory goes for about $200 cheap.
		  a 10megabyte disk is worth at least $100.
		  a 10" monitor is >$50, last I checked...
		  a disk drive is another $60, 
		  and $40 for a keyboard ain't bad,

	Since AT&T is just *giving away* 7300s, and, the above setup costs 
$500, that means the OBM costs $50!

	And if you ask me, pretty good for a modem that has NEVER given me
ANY grief! I've got my pc connected to the house phone line, which it calls
out on about 4 times a day. In spite of having people pick up the phone and
DIAL IT, I've only ONCE had uucico get confused enough to abort the transfer!
I use kermit for remote logins daily, without anywhere near the line noise
that I used to get out of my commadore.

	BTW: I use HDB uucp, w/ the system 7 mailer.
