The serial cards were dirt.. Maybe $30 apiece, though I think we can almost assume they're free on the motherboard these days.. The TAs were about $650 a pop, I think. I'd need to check the invoice. TAs prices are also going to fall through the floor in the next 6 months, I think. There's just too much demand for them not to. You tell all those new ISDN customers "It's just a faster modem! Hook it to the same serial port!" and they're going to understand what you're saying. The only competing solutions will be all-in-one ISDN cards with nice setup software. Just like external and internal modems compete today.. :) Jordan
