Suggestion for good 56K modem for Linux

[Tom Achtenberg]

If you can find one that is NOT a Winmodem it should work fine.  Reality is you can get an external modem for a lot less than an internal one that is not a Winmodem.

Thanks Jim. Does that mean that I have to use external modem for hardware 
modem. My office room is already littered with hubs, routers and what not, so 
I would prefer to have internal modem. 

Is there any internal modem that will work good with Linux?
