Practical Peripherals makes a very good modem.  Many people in many
newsgroups own the PP 2400 baud modem (I have seen 15+ glowing
endorsements, and just one person who's having problems [his modem is
probably fried & will probably be replaced under warranty]).  One
local person I know purchased several modems, was unhappy with the
error rates (5-10 spurious character per hour), and returned them.
Finally he bought a practical peripherals modem and he's very
satisfied.

The extra $20 for the PP. modem is probably worth it.  The modem is
guaranteed Hayes compatible or your money back.
