I spoke to Mike today, and he doesn't want the account re-opened. He's happy with his CIX connection. >Demon support do not have an atari.

MagiCMac wouldn't be a viable solution. Neither NOS nor Oasis behaves very well IME. Some general comments, to be fair. When I last spoke to Mike @ support before I left, he stated that they had 2 STs in the office. Mike wanted me to travel to London to train the support staff on the Atari, and was willing to pay. he also asked me to look about for potential authors to provide a "badged" version of connectivity software for teh ST. Mike once owned an ST, and recognised that Demon were the only ISP to provide support. Had I not left, I think the Atari support situation may well have grown along with Mike's plans. Some people at Demon do take the ST seriously.
