Hi, Jeff.

JG>  JG>> What are you going to use it for mainly? News, mail,
WWW, ftp, etc.

JG>  FM> Mainly WWW and mail. News and ftp would be very much secondary
JG>  FM> requirements.

JG> Now you come to the hard bit :-) How many hours a week would you use it
JG> for?

Yeah, and 'dunno' is the answer. :-)

JG> As an example, I use Ozemail because I only ever use it on weekends after
JG> midnight so it's $2.50 an hour. I would average about $10-$15 a month.

The new ACS-Link rates look like being...

 1 hour/month - $5.00/hr
 5               2.00
20               1.35
40               0.90

through Pegasus, and $3.50/hr buyable in blocks of 20/50/100 through
Access One. But Access One also have other pricing plans which they
don't detail, eg they mention 7 hours/week at $1.30/hr.

JG> If I ever go over $25 consistently, I'll consider using a mob called Zipper
JG> They charge $25 a month for unlimited usage [it costs $50 to register thoug
JG> :-(] If you want their number, let me know.

Thanks, I'll keep it in mind. At the moment I've decided to stick with
Pegasus, at least until I have a better understanding of my likely
usage.

Regards, FIM.
