We are looking to upgrade a number of modems, and the
modem we use for our UUCP/Usenet machine.  I am familiar
with the old 2400 baud modems, but there are new
beasties out there.

What are v.32, v.42, v32/42bis, etc.?  Does each type
have distinct advantages/disadvantages?  What is pricing
like for the faster modems?  Any info is appreciated.

Thanks...Jim Cronin
