Are you kidding?  I mean, yeah, it's free, but have you tried any 
recently?  I know from my dealings on this board previously that I have 
access on a lotbetter system than most, and I guess I'm spoiled with access.  
But the only thing you can really do on a freenet is mail, gopher, that sort 
of thing.  You should look for a site where you can get Unix shell access, 
access to a compiler, that sort of thing.  Look for $15-$20/month, flat fee.  
I haven't seen a freenet that lets you do a goddamn thing.  But you get what 
you pay for...:)
