I have a 2500/30 system (the next best thing to a 3000 8-) and use two
different modems on it, a Supra 2400 external (fine modem, great price!)
and a Telebit T1000 9600 baud external.  Both work great.  I use several
PD programs for telecomm, Access 1.42 (it doesn't work well on OS 2.0),
ATalk, JRComm, VT-100, and Kermit.  I also own a copy of OnLine! from MSS,
but hardly ever use it.

As far as other stuff, I'm using Dillon's UUCP 1.06D for Usenet stuff, and
several other goodies such as ASDG's Dual Serial Board.

Note that this is all running under AmigaDOS 1.3, not 2.0.  Some of the PD
stuff will undoubtedly crash under 2.0.
