As an AOL customer (and now an MSN customer?!?!?!) you would know!
vOv

Nope, you must have me comfused with someone else, I never had AOL,
and MSN gets pushed on us by Qwest DSL. All they provide now is
Internet portal, 24/7 support for DSL, and 10 pop3 accts. There are
other DSL providers, but they just rebundle Qwest DSL, since there
is just the one network. I have been considering Comcast that
provides higher speed, but more expensive, and I can only type so
fast,KKKnnnn

The cross thread post mentions web page, and I remembered that I do
have I think, 30 meg available, which I am trying to learn more about.

You said:

"I came
to realize that all I need for ISP is Internet Access. I do not
need the push content of the big ISP like AOL or others."

I thought this indicated that there was a time that you did use AOL,
and then decided not to anymore.

You also said:

"MSN gives me 10 pop3 accounts"

Which fooled me into thinking you were using MSN.

Sorry about the discontinuity, I forgot that causes you much distress!

There's no distress, but as you can probably imagine, in text-based
communication, your constant 2+2=5 style of communication is a
challenge to anyone who functions within logical paramaters.

I do have MSN, Not AOL.

Wow, you really are an idiot!

Use to get all those AOL cds, which were real
enticing just to slip in the CD, and in a few key strokes, you would
be on line and plugged into the incredible world of AOL. I was just
never ready to put on their shade of colored glasses.

I started playing with computers back with CP/M and bulletin boards,
when everything was difficult. You could not just install a printer
and have all the drivers work, so any thing as easy as AOL was
immediately suspect. My first "ISP" was the local bulletin board with
their version of push technology and content. You could find out in
the blink of an eye, of my 1200 baud dialup modem when the next
computer meeting was being held. Boy, that was exciting. Expecially
when they came out with GUI! Those were the days my friend...! OvO

I used to do gopher programming.

I used to do uucp programming. My first email address didn't have an @ sign
in it. Want more? I set up the first tcp-ip network at Hewlett Packards
workstation division.

LOL. Yeah, but you're probably an older dude. So it's less impressive :-D
