Firstly, Internal vs. External... As modems go they are usually functionally equal. Internal External Less desktop space used. Usable with different computers. Usually uses computer power. Uses external power. Less cabling and hook up prob. LEDs or status lights. and the list goes on... Personally, I prefer internal modems as I have limited desk space. But had I plenty of room, I would go with an external due to compatibility with the Amiga, Commodore 128, Zenith 286, and Atari ST here in the house. specifically, I use an Epic Classic II 2400 baud internal. I have had no problems with mine, but have worked on a few. Reasonable priced internal. Datalink 2400, I also have experience with this modem. Excellent modem, (as are most products from Applied Engr.) Both modems are compatible with Proterm 2.1. External: I have experience with the ProModem 1200 but have not worked with the 2400. I did like the 1200, but like I said before my space is at a minimum. Also compatible with Proterm. Eric
