[Wolves] False advertising?

Perhaps that's a little strong. Maybe misleading advertising would be
better. A couple of months ago I bought a new modem - I know I'm
still on dial up, can't afford BB. I went to the Overclockers site in
Stoke. Saw a Creative internal modem at the right price. It stated
on the ad' that it was '100% hardware design'. Ok, fine it should
work with Linux then. But it didn't! After mucho head scratching and
delving into the set up files I decided to try Creative's support team
and ask them. It's a bloody software modem - so not even a real modem
at all.
I'm now waiting to hear what Overclockers have to say.
I have tried the various sites that have 'fixes' for running a
Winmodem and of course my particular one just happens not to have a
fix :-((( typical.
