>>2. I need a modem. Is my only option the high priced modems thatfit in the B&W modem slot? What about PCI or USB modems? Can I get OSX drivers for these?
I was fortunate enough to get a Global Village modem in mine. There are precious few USB modems that work on a Mac, and even fewer that work well. PCI is an unknown for me. Most are WinModems so won't work in a Mac full stop, but i am unsure as to what 'full' modems have drivers.
External serial modem with a USB->Serial adapter?
Might have to hack the modem's script file a bit, but that's easy - they're plain text.
An interesting option. I'll check it out. Although the cost might be more that buying a B&W modem on eBay. My problem is that sellers either don't ship to Canada or ship using a courier that charges ridiculous amounts to get stuff over the border.
Thanks, Mark
