Thank you to all who replied with offers for used 56k modem. I now have one on the way.
Thank you also to everyone who offered solutions to the dreaded flashing ? problem since installing X. The general concensus when all else failed was to spend an entire day downloading all the updates and burn them to CD/reformatHD/partition/install9/update9/installX/updateX/update Toast and printer drivers etc. The assistance on this list is invaluable. Thank you again. Best wishes Edward
