| It's Not Only The Speed, AOL! I did dial up for a while - and finally got to DSL. I have great speeds - but that is beside the point. At a non-profit I help, they only have ISDL at 144 and they also have they have something that dial-ups don't have - always connected! I think that where the future is going and AOL should know that. Someday the day of dial-ups will be gone! I don't care of you use it 10 minutes a day, isn't it a pain when you want to look up something through the web, you have to wait for ring-ring-ring-schreeeeech? What about the day when we talk to all our computers - everything will be instant access. What I think what will happen to AOL? Their dial-up will slowly keep shrinking and they will become another Broadband provider. If they're smart, they will promote this heavily - they currently have the customer base.
