Re: Any Good Philly ISPs?


Another point, that I should have mentioned ealier, is that Net Access IS
Linux-friendly.

In their connection help pages, somewhere, there is extensive documentation
given for users with Linux systems.  I dunno if Net Access themselves run
Linux for their servers, but I just wanted to point out that they are
Linux-friendly!

With all this stuff, doesn't Net Access sound like a winner?  :-)
