Speaking of USB modems and tiger, Apple just released one:

<http://www.apple.com/imac/> Down near the bottom. It only appears available as a $49 add-on to an iMac right now, but I suspect they'll start selling it as a separate item soon.
Wasn't aware anyone was speaking of USB modems, but I do have a question:

If there is already a modem built in (AFAIK, all iMacs do), why would someone want an external one?

My G4/533 doesn't have a built-in modem. If it works in any Mac via USB and I was still using dialup, it'd be a nice option.


Well, I started this thread last week, and while there was one response at the time, with a link to some Global Village modem scripts, I never could get a Global Village USB modem to work with my B&W in Tiger. I could never find USB as an option for a modem when setting up using "Preferences". (I, too, am leary of using the internal modem.) Is the option part of the Tiger install for iMacs? I have those install disks. Do I need to use a utility like Pacifist to extract the required files to have Tiger recognize a USB modem? Where would they be? I AM able to get it to work in 9.2.2.

Thanks for any suggestions.
