Matter of fact, I'm using SLIP locally because it's about 10% more
effecient than PPP on the same line, if you disable block compression.
I have VJ compression enabled, but that's it and I get much better
throughput and interactive performance using it than with PPP.

Just because you don't use it doesn't mean it's not in use, or still
useful.
