<<Anyway, AOL as an ISP is no different than any other ISP, although if recent reviews are to be believed they are better than most as far as speed and accessibility (narrowband, that is).>> I'm not sure that this is correct, at least in terms of a local ISP vs. AOL. Most ISP don't cover the globe as AOL. I work in Baku, Azerbaijan. My wife is in Houston Texas. My daughter is in Dallas, Texas. We're using the same AOL account; we all dial local numbers; we pay $22/month total. For us, AOL has international advantages that far out-strip anything a local ISP could offer. Now, if AOL could just get their broadband high speed stuff together. -jg
