The vast majority of my callers were 2400 to 14.4... the odd 28.8 but the
quality of phonelines was shit so never really saw any incoming calls getting
that true 28800, always 21600 or weird 16800 / 19200.

My dipshit friends at the time later on were bragging about 33.6 and 56k and
"k-flex" whatever fad for dialup Internet but they NEVER EVER got any connects
higher than 31200. And those 56k's kept disconnecting or were shit Winmodems.
