The current 21" iMac with Snow Leopard no longer supports the Apple external modem, but I have been told that non-Apple modems like the Zoom 3095, will work. I would like to have one to enable me to sent a fax now and then. Comments? Recommendations? Thanks

Is it something about the iMac version that stops it working? I ask because
I have a 20" iMac with Snow Leopard which works fine with the Apple USB
modem.

It's probably because new Macs use the 64-bit kernel, and there is no 64-bit driver for that modem. Look in the "Software" section in System Profiler (Utilities folder). If it is using the 64-bit kernel, try booting with the "3" and "2" keys pressed to get it into 32-bit kernel, then try the modem.
