Recently, there was discussion on comp.sys.mac about Practical
Peripherals and their 2400 baud modem.  The result was 8 separate
endorsements, and mention of the "Hayes compatibility guaranteed, or
your money back".  

Just one person complained that the modem was a pain for BBS sysops
(in answer mode).  He didn't say you couldn't get it to work, just
that 80% of the traffic on Opus sysop Echo on Fidonet came from people
encountering difficulty using this modem for a BBS.
