I just got on ibm.net, and so far it seems fine - unlimited access for $30/month, up to 6 user-ids, each with individual mailbox, 800 points of presence around the world, including 18 in Canada (more next year), newsgroups, etc. Speedwise it seems about the same as isis. I *always* get connected on the very first try, even in the evening. I'm curious why you say it "don't measure up". The internet providers here include: atcon/auracom isis/auracom (when will these two merge???) iStar Sympatico (they will be providing dial-up ISDN access for the same rates as 28.8, although I don't know when in Halifax) Netcom IBM - Mark
