For some work I'm doing now I need to get a sample of the contents of

I'm looking to purchase an ISDN modem for my Linux system. I already
checked and my ISP supports it. I'm thinking of getting the 3Com ISDN
modem (runs around $200). This is my first venture into the world of
ISDN. Anybody make this work? I'm hoping to minimize my downtime as I

Is xcdroast pretty much the best program to use right now for duplicating
cd's under Redhat? Or is their a more mature alternative? The version of
