Well, I did type out a nice long description of all the ISP's in Prescott
and then Netscape crashed on me. So, here's the very shortened version.
There is no dialup for AOL in Prescott. The closest numbers are in
Flagstaff and Phoenix which are both long distance calls. Very expensive. I
am currently using Northlink but at least once or twice a night, I get
disconnected from the Internet. The line doesn't actually disconnect, I
just can't get e-mail or to any WWW sites. They do not offer unlimited
access so if you go over the limit(which isn't much), it will get very very
costly.

I am planning on going to Cyber Trails(www.cybertrails.com). It's $19.95 a
month, first month is free, no setup fee, unlimited time, and have a senior
citizen discount. I also hear Primenet(www.primenet.com) and Cable
One(www.cableone.net) are good. DO NOT USE FUTURE ONE(Used to be Lankaster)
OR BSL. They don't have a clue. I do computer work up here for a living so
I hear a lot about each of these ISP's. Hope this helps.
