[comp.sys.mac.hardware] Looking for a good, cheap modem -- help

whooper@oakhill.UUCP (William Hooper) (08/31/90)

I am looking for a decent but inexpensive 2400 baud modem.  Some of the mail-order
companies in MacUser have some, so could anyone with experience with these tell
me if they are any good?  The ones that look O.K. are Prometheus ProModem 2400 Mini, 
SmartOne 2400, Supra Modem 2400, and Power User 2400.  About all you can tell from the
ads is the price, so any information would be greatly appreciated.  Thanks in advance.

I have owned two Prometheus modems over the last 7 years, a 1200, then
upgraded to a 2400. I've spend hundreds of hours using both of them,
and they've been utterly reliable. I wouldn't hesitate to buy
another modem from Prometheus.
