If the modem has the same serial socket, and phone-plugs on the back, (
or side depending...) and it's HAYES compatible, Flash will handle it
quite happily!  (It should say on the box or in the manual or something
what the modems specifications are...)

If it is a 9600, you'll need to find the serial patch for use on your
ST, otherwise the modem will complain when you start trying to do anything
fancy!!  (This patch is available pretty much everywhere, I think
POOLFIX does the required job.)

It would be advisable to test, or get the modem on a if-it-doesn't-go-can-I
return-it basis!  That's probably the safest method.  Modems are pretty
much standard, if it works on one machine, it will generally work on all
the others!  (with one major exception being MS-Doze Internal Modems!)
