Dear Netters:

	I have several questions that I would like some advice/answers.

	1.  Does anyone have a fax/modem card or box?  Which is more
preferrable for a Mac II? that is internal vs external.  Which companies
make reliable fax/modem cards/boxes?  What is the best deal I can get by
mail ordering?  

	2.  At school, I have o problem downloading files (text, binary,
or macbinary) from unix to a Mac IIci at 19200 baud using Zmodem and a
digital phone.  However, when I try to upload files, I keep getting
errors and no information was actually sent.  I tried to upload .dvi
files created by OzTeX 1.2.  I then realized that I need to stuffit and
binhex it into a text file.  so I did.  But the same problem persisted.
I would sz file from zterm 0.85, the appropriate box would appear on 
screen but nothing gets transferred.  Is this a bug with the unix
implementation of sz?  Or I am setting the wrong parameters in Zterm 0.85.
Thnaks for the help.  Please e-mail me at bmwu@athena.mit.edu.
