Just FYI (I thought this was curious anyway...)

In the most recent DAMARK catalog, on the back page, I saw advertised:

"HAYES - COMPATIBLE 1200 BAUD MODEM -- Mfr. Sugg. Retail $59.95
 Model $:  SC212                                  Damark Price $29.95"

Of course it was the SX212, not SC212.  I thought that it was an
interesting thing to see in a catalog of this type.  Most of the computer
hardware was old 80C88 laptops, and XT's, and a few 286's and 386's
