Health-
Are these deals from techbargains, like the one you mentioned -off lease, used, refurbished, open box or new?
Depending on the deal, it can be any of the above.
This particular deal is for brand-new equipment.
Also, I wouldn’t need a dial up modem with broadband, right?
The only situation I can think of where it might be useful is if you wanted to send and receive faxes from your PC (as I occasionally do).
