	Hello there,

		I purchases a ZOOM modem directly from ZOOM last year.

I have never had an ounce of trouble from it, and at that time the were

offering a SEVEN year warranty.  I bought it for approx. $135 with the 

seven year warranty.  I figured that I'd have a 9600 bps by the time the 

warranty wears out.  This would be my recommendation.  And it is a personal

opinion.  Oh yea, it's external, comes with db8 to rs232 cable, manual, and

lots of free joins to various bulletin board systems.

	I know you can buy one from MacConnection.
