Hi Nita,
I'll have to if I want to have WWW-access, because my provider only supports
Windows 95. I've tried other providers, but I wasn't content with them. This
is (apart from the W95-thing) a good one.
BTW I didn't see only many error messages, but suddenly even time went

And now the GOOD NEWS:
Telephone-companies are testing a new and very fast way of transporting data
through a regular telephone-line.
It's called ADSL and can transport data at minimum 40x and at maximum 180x
as fast as a 33k6 modem can. (1.5-6.0 MB/s)
The price of a ADSL-modem is still very high now ($2,500), but is expected
to go down fast when ADSL has been made available for the public.
