Can 3DES be done in software on a 386 notebook and keep up with a 28.8 comm
line?  I assume that modem compression will now be usless as the IP datagram
was compressed before encryption.

Hey, I got to re-read the spec.  Where does it say what compression to use
before encryption and how to avoid patents????
