How then would the Mac OS know which modem port you were opening? How would it 
know you were talking about the USB port? There are older Macbooks and Desktops 
that actually have a modem as well as USB ports. I read the dictionary, but 
didn't see anything on how to actually specify the USB port. Just curious.
