About two months ago I bought a 2400 bd Supra modem for $149.00 from Programs Plus: 1-800-832-3201 75 Research Drive Stratford, Conneticut 06497 After looking long and hard this was the least expensive, Hayes compatible modem I could find. Programs Plus is not the only mail order house which offers this price but I have had good luck doing business with them in the past and decided to buy from them. My modem arrived (in Arizona) within three days, blue label. I have nothing bad to say about my new modem. It appears to be completely Hayes compatible and comes with a nice manual and help sheet as well as those "free" Compuserve and Telenet coupons that generally accompany modems. Another professor in my department has been using is Supra modem for over a year now and has had no problems with it. Happy shopping!!
