Ok... to answer my own question (yes, I'm talking to myself... and waiting for 
the men in the nice white coats)...

Nevermind.

After reading the horror stories on this (and other) newsgroups about Sportster 
28.8 Modems, I ended up getting a Supra w/Voice Mail.  Works like a charm.  
Plugged it in, W95 recognized it, asked for the driver, I stuck in the disk, 
and bingo... all set and ready to go.  The voice mail program is quite advanced 
(or at least seems to to me as I've never dealt with such a thing before).  I 
checked out incoming faxes, data, and voice mail, and it handled them all with 
no problem.

Later...
Steve
