milady,
I know that. I was talking out of over 5 years experience on 2 different
computers though. I know that don't make it always bad. Anything can get
better. It's just that during the 5 years I had earthlink, I had nothing
but trouble with it. Why is beyond me because earthlink is not a new
provider exactly, but it sure had it's problems. After a while I got
charter and have had it for about 6 years now and simply love it. In my
opinion, charter is even better then DSL and I've had both. However, I do
realize there are "lemons" in just about everything. If you have good luck
with earthlink, then that's great. I just can't say that.
Bob
