I have used RR for 2 years now and i would kill for it. Dial up modems are like outhouses after you've had cable modem. (have not experienced DSL). It is unlikely that AOL will become the front end or default home page for RR after the merger. AOL is great for ease of use and access from any location. But is primarily a paid subscription service. I still have AOL but pay $9.95 a month, and only because it is a convenient way to chat with some friends. You just don't need a browser home page with cable modem. I have Yahoo financial for my home page. There are just too many great free sites if you already have internet access to bother with AOL's funky pages. IT is possible, that in the grand plan of AOL, they will try to vastly increase non-subscriber traffic to their AOL sites. and get greater advertising revenue and percentage of sales. A bit OT, but i think that the combo of AOL/TWX will create one of the great media/internet companies and one of the largest and most successful US companies. larry
