I'm using Earthlink, started with Netcom in 1997. The service works well for me, dialup, DSL, and wireless are available. GNU/Linux support is relatively sparse, though you'll find some support docs (not all of which are sufficiently misleading to be worthless), and I've actually started getting a few support requests passed to a relatively linux-literate technician. Most people report best results from small local ISPs. Advantages of Earthlink are a nationwide network -- you can dial in from just about anywhere. Pay an extra $1 for each hour you're running a dual connection. Peace. -- Karsten M. Self <kmself@ix.netcom.com> http://kmself.home.netcom.com/ What part of "Gestalt" don't you understand?
