I used to use an ISP called "OneMain," it worked okay, they supported 
the mac, and only cost me $9.95/month. Then EarthLink acquired OneMain 
and WOW how things changed. The first thing was they raised my access 
fee from $9.95/month to $19.95/month and gave me things like AOL, 
"Something Words" I don't remember what they were really called, but I 
didn't need them and didn't want them. Next when there was a problem 
they would say "Your on your own" we don't support the Mac.

Well it didn't take me long to switch to another ISP. In fact the only 
thing that I look for in an ISP is WEB access, a POP mailbox and low 
price. I don't need their home page or any of the other garbage that is 
offered as almost all ISP home pages are accessible for anywhere on the 
WEB.

If you are using EarthLink, look a little harder and I'm sure that 
you'll find something just as useful and a lot less expensive. Try 
www.lowermybills.com and click on "internet access"
