<<actually...I pay $9.95/month for my aol..on top of my @home bill...>>

Me too, Mary, except I am on Roadrunner. Why?

AOL was there first. My children, their grandparents, all their school chums, and the Instant messenger feature. Gotta keep 'em together.

They would have a major fit if I wanted to drop it altogether. If it came to a vote at our house, the AOL dialup would stay and the Roadrunner would go.

My position: I own both athm and aol and think both will thrive.

Incidentally, and not to sound too negative toward cable, but the effective speed increase is NOT 50 times a 28,800 connection. Cable will definitely show you how dependent you are on the server you are connecting too. That's where my bottlenecks are now.
