[1] I have seen modems branded as HaM around for a long time. In fact, the first ever WinModem I saw was an ISA 33k6 HaM. This was in pentium class machine, and was purchased with the machine. HaM is just the generic term for WinModem.
-(HaM is
an acronym for "Host assisted Modem." - zcat)
+(I always understood that
HaM was
an acronym for "Host assisted Modem.". Googlefight says I'm wrong :) I don't quite see how a 56K winmodem is 'accelerated' in comparison to a 56k hardware modem, I guess it's one of those marketing terms..
