I always buy external modems. You can be sure that it's not a "winmodem", and my personal belief is that they offer better lightning/surge protection. >suggestions? any good brands? any brands to stay away from? >(alternately...where can I get a good $$ ;) ) Some tests have suggested (www.boardwatch.com) that the 3Com/USRobotics 56K/V90 models have superior 56k performance in many cases. - Marsh -- Unsubscribe? mail -s unsubscribe [EMAIL PROTECTED] < /dev/null
