	http://www.wimp.com/connectsinternet/ I bet this MODEM is older than several of our forum posters.

	It's probably older than all of us. My father had one when I was a kid. Though we never used it. The slowest modem I remember using was a Zoom 300 baud modem in my Apple ][+. Though the coupler modems were not much slower at 150 baud.

	Those were innovative days... as a new generation IT geek, I kinda wish I was around back then.
