I can't believe it actually worked!  Setting the BIOS option
"Plug-and-Play OS" to "N" did the trick.  :-)  NetBSD 1.3I actually
managed to properly detect the USB stuff, as seen in the following boot
message excerpt below:

     uhci0 at pci0 dev 1 function 2: Intel 82371AB USB Host Controller
               (PIIX4) (rev. 0x01)
     uhci0: interrupting at irq 9
     uhci0: USB version 1.0
     usb0 at uhci0
     uhub0 at usb0
     uhub0: Intel UHCI root hub (class 9/1) (rev 1.00/1.00), addr 1

I can't wait to get to the office to try it out with my USB mouse.  Since
both the BIBLO, VAIO, and many other computers, have that BIOS option,
maybe turning it off should be mentioned in the FAQs and INSTALL
documentation.

Unfortunately, even with the kernel options "puc* at pci?" and "com* at puc?"
options compiled into the kernel, no mention of "puc*" appears in the boot
messages, and hense the internal modem is still unsupported by all of my
NetBSD kernels.  Compiling up puc in the kernels resulted made no difference
in the boot messages.

Do you or anyone else have any ideas on what else I might try to get the
internal modem working?

Cool!  Now it all makes sense.  I can't believe that I didn't see it before.
Prehaps another entry to our NetBSD FAQ and INSTALL docs.

Yes it all did very, very much.  Thank you everyone that responded so
quickly, especially Johnny.  Sincerely, Alicia.
