[NTLUG:Discuss] Modems = Plug + Pray?

[Stephen Davidson]

The one I just bought from Fry's for my niece's box works quite nicely. 
You have to make sure it is not a "WinModem".  I do apologize for not 
knowing the brand off the top of my head.

Literally it was put the modem in, boot, check dmesg to find out the com it was on, and ready to go.  No PCI modem that I know of will work with any Linux OS so the pickins are getting smaller everyday.
