DJ...people use AOL because it is easy and it is everywhere. It is the obvious choice to the average consumer. Not everyone is as computer literate and experienced as your average SI user. We are abnormal freaks to be exact! Most people have no clue how to use a PC let alone configure a dial up connection and find stuff on the Internet all by themselves. Believe me, I deal with these people daily as a network admin. AOL presents a good product for the masses. It is not for your advanced PC user. I have no idea what you mean about a dozen people developing AOL in a month. I hope you don't think it can be replicated in such a fashion. Best of luck if you're short. Alex
