   I would think that any modem would back down all the way to 300 baud...but   
   of course I've never tried it, so I can't say for sure.  Seemed to me that   
   every modem spec sheet I saw seemed to include about anything...  Kinda like   
   how I can still boot DOS and run Windows 3.1 on my Pentium-4 PC.   
      
   Seems to me the biggest problem would be finding a BBS to dial up to...  :-)   
   Or rather make that :-(    Seems like even the few telnet ones that have   
   been around are disappearing.  Though I'll have to honestly say I've not   
   gone searching recently.
