I am trying to find out what model this mac is so that I can get a modem for it. The specs are 466Mhz (G4) / 1MB cache / 128 MB RAM / Zip / CR-RW / Gigabit ENET/ Also, where would you recomend getting an internal modem for it? Thank's

It's probably this machine: http://www.lowendmac.com/ppc/g4-133.shtml

As for an internal modem, I can only recommend eBay. Hopefully someone else has a suggestion.

Welcome to Mac! Please describe the case...what color? What form--tower, desktop?

Does the modem have to be internal? You'll save money with an external modem.

It is a graphite colered tower; I think that -Q- is right about the type. The problem with the modem is that we need to test compatibility issues (I am working with a college maint group). We provide some off campus dileup access, and some Mac users have had problmes with the modems. Since these problems don't seem to be happening on the pc's we want to see if we can duplicate the problems on one of our macs. However, our macs don't have modems (since we have a LAN) so we need to get one. I don't know if an external modem will behave exactly the same as an internal one, so we wanted to try it with an internal one first.
