I am planning to buy a USR Sportster modem in the near future. But should I 
buy a internal or external one ?  This is a high speed modem, and if the
UART on the internal one don't support buffered I/O, wont I then have a 
problem in OS/2 ?  If I buy a external one, I could always put a 16650AFN
UART on the I/O device. What do the people out there suggest ?
