    I couldn't either, really, but somehow managed it. I got a Courier
    through something they called the "sysop program" back then, had to
    prove you operated a board, and they gave you like half-off the price.
    Came with a brass tag on the case that said something, can't recall what though. I still have it somewhere in the back of a closet. :-)

    I wish mine still worked! That was the best modem I ever had.

    I was also a member of the USR sysop program back when it first began. All three of the HSTs I got were free (but I had to send back the old one in order to get the new one.) I still have the last one and it still works.
