Who's your provider? Netcom wanted : $700 sign-up fee. Here in Salt Lake City, we're lucky enough to have 5 or 6 ISPs, but that is not really surprising if you know the history of SLC and networking (one of the original 4 arpanet sites, Novell lives here, etc.) Both IntelliNET and Xmission provide basic SLIP access via (up to) 28.8 VFC modems for less than $25/month. Both have been having their growing pains, but provide a good service. On the other tentacle, we have cold snowy winters, hot summers, and lotsa smog. ;^) Wes Peters
