Dear Judith, Thanks for the most informative posting on the COM's verses ISP's. I'm slowly drifting toward the poor house with AOL, averaging bills of $50--60/Mo. Do you have any info on how to locate a ISP in my local area? EG., I live in Naples, FL., and the nearest city of any size is Ft. Myers. Miami is 110 miles away. Any help you can provide will be greatly appreciated. Dick Praz Rpp33 P12yr.
