The modem in my Vaio works fine with Linux; it's a regular modem, not 
a WinModem. The machine fairly old, though; I got it in 1999, so as 
laptops go it's already prehistoric. For all I know, newer Vaios may 
use a different modem; I have a vague recollection of someone asking  
about that a couple years ago.
