Diamond SupraExpress 56e pro. Many hours spent on irc. I remember using an auto dialer for the time limits imposed by ISP's back then, and only available after 6pm and weekends. There was such rediculous price gauging and rate limiting on domestic users. But sometimes I do miss the connecting sound! xD
