    My company has provided me with a modem/terminal combination for my
    home.  Now that I have a Mac/Imagewriter combo, however, I've run out
    of desktop, so the terminal is on the floor.  I'd like to use my Mac
    to communicate with our UNIX mainframe, if possible using the same
    1200 baud modem I'm currently equipped with e.g. a U.S. Robotics
    Password, which apparently is a Bell 212A protocol unit.

    Is there any terminal software for Mac that will let me do this?
    I'd like to get a vt100 emulation, or something similar.

    Thanks in advance for any help.
