: Or 3. It's not worth it to Netcom or any other Internet provider to give 
: you all kinds of customer service for your $17.50 a month.  You get what 
: you pay for.  Period.

I would characterize the issues Don raised as "basic attentive 
running of a multiuser machine," not as "all kinds of customer 
service."  

We are, after all, talking about a nationwide firm that hopes to 
have itself positioned as a major player when online services come 
to be considered basic utilities, not a local bbs that some hobbyist
runs in his attic. This makes missing files, erratic connections,
etc. a lot more peevesome.

BTW,  a student, someone who's between jobs, a wage slave in an
underpaid profession, etc.  might not think of $17.50 a month as 
a trivial amount of money.  One man's chump change is another 
man's tank of gas or bag of groceries.  

Cheers,
