I was just over at the Atari store looking at the $27 modem, it looks good,
it plugs into the serial loop (back of the disk drive) and comes with window
software on disk which allows you to configure, print screen and xfer files
using xmodem protocal, it also has autodial with the ability to save a
directory of numbers. it also comes with a packet of free time on
compu-serve and dow-jones new retrival service. only one down side, best i
can tell its 300 baud only but for $27 who cares !!!!!--
