Even if you only use it for a guide, a search at
www.pricewatch.com for 'hardware modem' will turn up several
internal pci modems. There's as good a chance now'a days an
external won't work either, so avoid that advice....
.....and yes, seems ISA slots are fixin to be history. Tho
there are some mobo's of the current crop that still advertise an
ISA/PCI combo slot. I'm lookin hard at a CUSL2 (Asus), to go over
a gig with'a P-3e, it still has a pci/isa combo slot. So I'll need
a new sound card or modem ;-)
One more comment (indulge me ;) I believe I read more " I just
bought 'so'n so' hardware", "how do I make it work with Linux" on
this list than I do on the newbie list .... ;>
