Hmmm,  I do not know, HOW you are searching, but I found more  then  300
models of varous manufactrer which have a Modem integrated or as option.

All of my IBL/Lenovo ThinkPads have a analog modem integrated.

Most of them are "Lucent WinModem"  which  are  working  perfectly  with
Linux.  Some others have the IA32 Modem Chip, which is  a  WinModem  too
and is working with Linux.
