Can you recommend a good Dial-Up ISP?
I'm setting up an older iMac for my aunt who lives in CA. I know Earthlink is pretty good, but I was wondering if anyone had any other recommendations? Earthlink runs $21.95 a month. I did a quick search on the net for "mac isp" and I got a lot of hits that come in the $15-$17 range, which is great for my aunt since she has limited funds. However, I've never heard of any of these outfits.
So if anyone has any recommendations, I'd really appreciate hearing them.
Thanks!

9.95 per month
Likes:
-large amount of access numbers
-great spam filtering
-easy to reach tech support (although the network may have only had 3-5 problems in the last few years and lasting only a day at that)
Dislikes:
-horribly designed website but effective
-still just a dial up (ugh!)
I signed my parents up as an additional email account on my .mac for $10 more a year. Although they have a @macisp.net email address we never use it and the whole service is 'back end' and basically never heard from.
I know with Juno and Netzero the rates are cheaper, but for now due to their rock solid service and support I'll be keeping my parents on MacISP.net
P.S. they are running a special right now...first six months $9.95

My Mom and Dad are in a similar situation as your aunt. After trying out the usual suspects...earthlink, aol...etc. I came across MacISP.net (formerly appleisp.net). I signed them up a little over 3 years ago and have been impressed with the service.
