I now can get a modem, but I want to be absolutely sure that it works
with Linux as well as with Windows. The Linux disributions I will be
using it with are Mandrake 6 and Red Hat 5. I will also use it with
Windows 95 and maybe DOS. It must be an external modem (how else would
I share it between a laptop and a PC?). It should plug into the serial
port.
I don't want to pay more than $80, but I also need a fast, reliable 56K
modem. I heard about a Diamond sale recently, but I no longer have the
URL.
p.s. This will the be first modem I have ever bought in my entire life.

It's probably close to double the $80 you hope to limit yourself to, but for
what-its-worth, I use an external USR faxmodem v.90 X2 with my Toshiba laptop
and it works great (both Linux 2.2.5 and Win 9x) 8-)
