I don't have to buy more dial-up hours from Rahul or worry about
how long I'm on-line, for one.  For two, I travel a fair amount
and Rahul's dial-ups aren't local when I do.

Since my main mail and news accounts are on a different account
than this one, the "distance" of Megapop from Rahul isn't an
issue because Rahul's dial-ups are just as "far" in network
terms from my mailbox and normal news server. :)
