I'm looking for a good 2400bps internal (PC-AT) modem to replace
my losing cheapie Everex.  I read good things in PC magazine about
the ATI 2400etc modem complete with MNP-5 for under $200.

Does anyone out there have one?  Is it good?  Do you know of something better?

My three most important concerns in a modem are

	1) line-noise susceptibilty
	2) line-noise susceptibilty
	3) line-noise susceptibilty

I live in the Research Triangle Park area gaced with *three* different
phone companies.  Worse yet, I'm in GTE country and I often get horribly
noisy lines just dialing down the street.

Please respond via e-mail, and I'll summarize.
