Many thanks to all who weighed in on this problem, both through the group and individually. I 
am posting this to thank everyone and offer a warning about buying a laptop with this 
modem, or, I suppose, others being sold now as well.

I have tried everything everybody suggested, as well as other things on my own. These 
include reducing baud rate, turing off compression, turing of the "FIFO" buffers, changing 
flow control, etc. etc. etc. The bottom line is, at a low enough baud rate, without compression 
or FIFO buffers, without hardware flow control, and on a CLEAN ENOUGH LINE, you can get 
the thing to work, but not reliably. On typical phone lines, it's useless.

Since I've already wasted too much time on this, my plan is to replace the modem or buy an 
external one. However, I caution everyone purchasing a new laptop who requires dial-up 
access to an HP3000 , to make sure the thing will work first.
