If you look at the modems offered the external one at that price is USB..... Sounds limited to about 2 OS I know of only..........
(W98 and W2000)...uinless of course you use one of those boxes as a front end......suddenly sounds pretty expensive to me......
Keep trying.

| Sorry, but you and anyone else who suggests an external modem has missed the point of why we need drivers for Linux/xBSD... I'm
