| I was just wondering today... ...if netzero still exists. I'm moving later this summer, and thought dialing into them might be worth it while I wait for cable. It looks like I'll be in a comcast market so I might have a good long wait!  | |

| Re: har har said by benc :said by Tzale :Why pay $50/month when all ISPs take you to the same internet? I've seen those NetZero ads. I've thought it funny too. NetZero isn't even the cheapest. Dial-Up.cc is even cheaper, at $8/mo. and no contract. They used to be $5/mo., which appealed to me since I wanted to have Internet access in case my cable went out. That and there's no DSL here, so I can't just use Dual-WAN and have the DSL for back-up. I remember when NetZero was FREE!

| Re: har har I still keep a dialup provider just in case cable goes down and I really need to get to the internet or get e-mail. Today, just for the halibut, I scrounged around for the box in which I had stored my external Zoom V.90 modem. I was thinking about removing the internal modem and using the slot for something else, so I needed to see whether it would still work. I got it to send a fax, which was encouraging and now I'm on line with it and it seems to work better than the V.92 LT WinModem. It also has an LT chipset, but being an external serial modem, it doesn't depend on the CPU for help. Anyway, I may now pull the internal modem and put that other card in. I'm sure I won't use the external modem for connecting to the internet all that much, but it is essential to maintain the ability to send and receive faxes, at least for now.
If dialtone goes away, that's a whole other kettle of fish. | |

| Juno Fan here AHH, Juno. My wife and I have e mail accounts (Juno 5.0, not just web based) and connect broadband thru other means. I will NEVER have a ISP specific @xxx.com e mail account. I can change ISP's anytime and never miss a beat, or check my mail from anywhere using the webmail. Heck if times got tough, I could go to the library and check my e mail. Actually have a gmail and yahoo account also, but Juno seems far superior (using the paid program). | |

| Ah, Juno... I remember when Juno and NetZero were both absolutely free, also. I have a soft spot in my heart for Juno, especially. During the Northeast Ice Storm of 1998, my wife was out of State, unable to get back home, and my son and I were stranded in the house with marginal electricity working, but phone lines were up. None of the local ISPs numbers were working, because all of their POPs were located in areas without electricity, for over 3 weeks. Thanks to Juno, I was able to e-mail my wife in Cleveland and keep in touch because Juno's nearest phone number was in Syracuse, which had electricity and was still in my regional calling area. | |
