	This is a common misconception, that the modem-to-'puter
speed must match the modem-to-modem speed. In reality, you want to
have the term software set higher to allow compression algorithms to
actually work. For a 14.4 modem, I'd suggest at least 38400 term speed,
I use a 115k speed on my 28.8k (I'm using a PC, not an Apple).
