Hi Brad: RE >The only competition to AOL is MSN, Prodigy and Compuserve.<
The real competition is over looked as to many people have head in
the air..it's the PC clubs..check out HAL in Houston, it's the
ones that are scattered all over the country, and have a user base
that exceeds..all the above put together..the not for profit..ISPs
are springing up every were...price is falling as fast for ISP
service as it did for computers..can get you full dial up service
in most any Big city for $9.95 now, that they don't advertise..
don't mean they are not coming on line..they are out growing all
the comercial ones as to hook ups..and thats compitition !
I only pay 14:95 for all I can eat..and get a meg of space on the
servers hard disk..and 3 ways to dial in..free usenet, free
most everything..IRC..chats with no adds, and usenet..all included,
and the push type news feeds are so many now..I can't keep up with
them..and growing..and all that is were the serious compitition
is..and they are coming on line so fast..that AOL is a joke.
