Dear Moe,
PacBell is a telephone company in California (Pacific Bell) - we're
slightly south west of there. Scott Adams of Dilbert fame worked at
PacBell - might have even derived some of his ideas from there - scary.
As luck would have it, my brother-in-law used to work there too in DSL
tech support no less. Ask a Linux related question and expect the first
thing for them to say is, "find the START button and go to SETTINGS then
CONTROL PANEL". Anyway, there should be a more 'local' linux user group
you could use. Try http://linuxmafia.com/sjsu/ and you'll probably find
the modem you're after.
Good luck and think of us lowly souls who are stuck at 56k when you're
cruising the superhighway. Maybe ask PacBell to put cable in my area -
our local telcos can't be bothered.
