I totally agree with you regarding an increase server and storage demand. Do you know who'se servers AT&T uses now? Lynn BTW, if AT&T Worldnet is experiencing delays, I bet AOL is having them, too.

John, The local Bell in my area just started a new service called Zoom (ASDL). They will come install the hardware in your computer if you sign up for there internet service ($15 a month) and the cost of the Zoom service (300Kbs) is about $30. There are 3 different level of service which go from 300Kbs to about 1500Kbs for $100 per month..... don't quote me on the prices or speeds, their off the top of my head, but anyhow, thats the jist of it. Personally, I may switch to the 30 dollar service, that would make my monthly bill 45 dollars, but I then could get streaming video and nice audio over the net. RichieH
