	I have an Orchid MacFax modem, FAX (send *&* receive) and 300/1200/2400
data modem.  Well, to cut a long story short, it works - it comes with a *special*
version of BackFax (which is customised to only work with the Orchid - nasty
idea) and works quite happily with Versaterm and, yuck spit, Prodigy (not that
I use it you understand).

Cost is around $425 which is not unfair considering that it does deliver the
9600 baud Fax portion (4800 was not a sensible option for me with phone
costs the way they are).  I'm quite pleased so far, I have been told that it
works with ATM, so goodbye 3* fonts - any other questions ?
