What?!?!?! Since when??? I'm on about 200 hours/month. Maybe I'm the reason they changed it! I hope I get grandfathered. Hmmmm, well, if that's the case, then I rescind my recommendation.

Peter, How does IBM stay in business? They want $19.95/month for only 100 hours (50 hours less than MCI and AT&T). The IBM salesgirl proudly told me that the average person only spends 45 hours a month on line, and 100 hours is more than enough for anyone. I remember back in 1987 when IBM was charging about $45.00 for a box of 5 1/4" floppy diskettes at the same time when everyone else was charging less than $10.00. The IBM salesman told me that I'd have to be foolish to buy it from them! By the way, Sprint offers unlimited service for $19.95/month. Largo, thank you for the Mindspring suggestion. I have heard good things about them. GM
