Eeeew . . .
Yes, I am weak.
I crave dial-up acceleration.
I installed the Earthlink software.
In punishment for my sins, the official AOL-Wannabe-Ware is exactly as awful as I recall . . . and worse.
The e-mail program used to carry a tagline that said something like "Earthlink -- Total World Domination." Or something similar.
Now it says "EarthLink Revolves Around You."
I have to find another service, and it is complicated by the fact that The Husband plays Star Wars Galaxies, and it really depends on the accelerator.
Update: The EarthWare is slowly being beaten into submission. I dislike its presence on my hard drive, but I'm willing to live with it. At least it isn't an AOL build . . .
And before you suggest it, we are down in a valley. The wireless signals bounce over us -- we can barely connect a cell phone until we get to the top of a hill.
And satellite connections have a five second lag -- Mr. MMORPG would have heart failure if he had to deal with such a long lag.

I would LOVE The Beast That Is Comcast.
I'm still not finding anything that isn't a member of the AOL family that still isn't Earthlink.
AOL really gets around . . .
