If you were running this ISP or any other Cleveland-based ISP on
the west coast or in the NYC area you would be run out of town because of
the high prices providers charge. I see many providers that provide
PPP for as little as $15 a month, flat rate and no hour limit, in
addition to WWW and FTP space. As far as I know, the ISPs here in
Cleveland don't even allow the usage of TIA.
