Harold, you are not the last American dial up user. A recent report showed that about 10% of Americans continue to use dial up while another 60% use broadband which is way better than up here in Canada. I just found out how much I will have to pay to get broadband installed: $2000.00+. The plus being the unknown of having a 90 foot high tower, I might need another 5 or 10 feet which tips the scales another $1000.00! For that much I'm just going to offer them space for a 400 foot tower in exchange for access ;) Or better yet wait another 4 years to see what else comes up...
