Default Looks like I won't be "seeing" you as often b/c of the @Home shutdown : (

It seems as though the fears of a shut down are real and I may be w/out internet access from home within the next couple of hours. I'll keep in touch during work wheneer I can but I won't be posting at night or on weekends.

I'll switch my Forum e-mail account to my Hotmail account so I can still get your e-mails from time to time. Please update any of your lists to include the following address: old_drummer@hotmail.com.

I'll miss the evening forum chats and the Wednesday YahOOOOO chats. With some luck, they'll iron this out and I'll be back to full access soon.

Default Sign up and install NetZero?

Then you can connect for free from home while the system is down for you.

Default As a fellow @Home subscriber, this appears to hold out some hope...

Default 2 problems (1 big): No modem and no 2nd phone line....

I know I can pick up a modem and slap it in tonight but that doesn't solve the dedicated access issue. I have only one line and will be moving in 3-6 months so it makes no sense to have a new line installed.

The prospect of going back to dialup is less appealing than gum surgery w/out anesthesia.

Default That's just the ISP right? Couldn't he just use Netscape...

or am I at a total loss? I used the net in the biz office last night, which uses comcast, and it still worked.
