  Go to eagle woman's site.  buried in the sim pages is a faq about usb
modems.  For gpl, they seem to be ideal.

yeah
that's where I got the idea
but there wasn't much info
about anything else I might need
for things like voice-over-net
or ROGER WILLY thingy

If you don't mind an ISA modem, check out the Zoom internal 56K (not
the Winmodem).
I get consitently better connects and transfers with mine than I do
with my Diamond Supra (serial). Best modem I've ever owned.

I could not agree more with you.  I have a zoom 2919 ISA (non-winmodem), by
far the best modem I have ever owned.  Much better than my previous Supra
piece of crap.  I just bought another one for the office.  Needless to say,
it is highly recommended.
