- <> I work for Tele-Video Production Services, a video company in Oakland,

- <> internal PC modem will work in the Amiga 4000, or whether it needs
- <> something special. Also, what modems would you recommend?
-
- No. Unless you want to waste money on a bridgeboard just so
- you can access the modem.
-
- I would suggest a SupraFaxModem 288 by Supra Corp. This is
- an external modem with a digital display window, Flash ROM,
- aluminum case, 28.8k V.34 data, 14.4k Fax, a 5 year warranty,
- and nice styling.
-
- You can buy one via mail order for about $195.
-
- Most people seem to like USR modems, but I haven't been too
- impressed by any that I've seen. This is just my personal
- opinion and I'm not trying to start a modem war.
