Let me get this straight ... you bought a MacBook Pro and never checked to see if it has a telephone modem??
Wait, wait ... you're still on DIALUP?!
Just kiddin'. You mentioned you live in a small town, so it's unlikely that high-speed is yet a viable option for you. Since that's the case, I *highly* recommend the Apple USB modem for $49. You might find something that is cheaper, but it will be QUITE the little miracle to get it to perform as seamlessly as Apple's own modem (clue: modem manufacturers NEVER bother to test to see if their products work with Macs).
