Joe,
My understanding is that any external modem will work with your Mac as long
as you can connect it to your serial port (either modem or printer port).
All the PC external modems I've seen connect to a parallel port, so you need
a cable that connects from the parallel port to the Mac serial port. These
are relatively common and inexpensive, and in my experience work just fine,
though I haven't tried them with a 56K modem.
