Unless you're seriously into hassle, buy an external serial modem,
PCMCIA modem, USB modem, or similar. Google is your friend, saw used on
ebay for <$10, works POTS or cellular according to the spec. Bought one
at a computer show for <$10 as well, and lots of old serial modems around.
I assume this is just for emergencies rather than an attempt to see how
long a download of FC8 would take on dialup...
