If you believe the hype, all dial in is catered for and "they are not failing form their own success". The new BT Online suggests the problems with Demon is they have 60,000 customers and bandwidth for 8,000. They would say this, but much of it i true. And yes they seem to have forgotten the Atari band, strumming away in the corner. Anyone know what is happening with the B-testing of Oasis 2? Is it out for sale/use yet? If so, does the Spider mode activate yet? John -- John Clark
