This info was gleaned from a bulletin on the Twilight Clone BBS.
(301)946-5032 (SHameless Plug ;-)) Since you're in the DC area, it may
be worth a call. They have many HST/DS modems which support V.32 and
V.42bis protocols.
In answer to other part of your post, I'm entering this message on a
9600 baud modem and a Mac IIcx, so it definitely is possible to use a
high speed modem on a Mac :)
