Almost none. Be very, very careful you don't fall into the trap of buying
Winmodems - modems which rely on the computer's CPU to think for them.
Most of them don't work under Linux.

My standard modem recommendation is the USR HST Courier - not sure if they
come in an internal version, though. And they cost a bundle, but they work
forever - I've had mine more than 7 years now, it's been on 24 hours a
day, 7 days a week, and it's still going strong.
