I find it hard to believe any one business will ever be able to >monopolize this business. I was wondering about that too. I don't know where you are but here in Houston (one of the densest areas in the country for competing ISP's... over 70 at last count have at LEAST a POP here) $19.95/month is almost top-end! I can easily get $14.95/month here and I saw one ad last week for $9.95/month unlimited PPP. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Bill W Smith Jr <•••@••.•••> http://www.srisoft.com Senior Programmer ftp://ftp.srisoft.com Sunland Resources, Inc.
