Hellow world...

	I have recently begun using Linux on my DX2-66 machine at home
and have destroyed all traces of the evil Microsoft Sloth operating
system from my hard drive. I am eventually planning on setting up my
system as a multi-line dial in for the Cleveland area, but before I can
take on such a grand task, I need to find a SLIP connection. My
problem right now is that I can't afford the 150$ a month that some of
the services are charging locally, and until the system is up and
running in some semi-stable fashion, I can't ask users for donations.
I'd preferably like to use a local or toll free number.
	I am willing to donate a 14.4 USRobotics Modem to my SLIP Host
site and when I upgrade, a 28.8k US Robotics. 

Any information would be greatly appreciated, and please E-mail me
your responses.

I think you are hoping for too much. Relaible SL/IP is offered 
by OARnet, and dedicated line costs twice as much... installation 
costs are 400 or 1000 dollars.
