OT:RE: National ISP Decision

I've been happiest with Earthlink and AT&T. Don't use their software
though!

My personal preference is Earthlink (even though they are owned by
SPRINT and I HATE SPRINT) as they are a pretty open ISP (i.e. I can
access my pop EMail from non Earthlink connections, etc). 

AT&T usually has good performance, and as long as you don't use their
software it works well. I find it a pain to not be able to get my AT&T
pop mail when I am connected via a non-AT&T connection though. Webmail
is available, but not as convenient.

Of course, at the other end of the satisfaction spectrum sits AOL, MSN,
and Prodigy. Never, ever, even consider them.

  I know that this is not the intended topic for this list, but I
couldn't think of a more knowledgeable and experienced bunch of people
to ask than you.  I'm sure that most of you are network administrators
(or better) and you have had to make a choice about a national ISP for
your traveling users.  I've been asked to evaluate ISP's and decide on
one for my company.  It needs to be reliable and they need to have a
local access number just about everywhere in the US.  If you can brag
about your ISP, can you please do so to me?  I'm really just starting
out on this quest and I'd value your input.

Thanks!
