Re: [TCLUG:22424] [OT] ISPs

[Ben Kochie <ben@nerp.net>]

yep.. an OS/2 guy i know has been complaining about the IBM dialup
problem.. he uses linux and OS/2 for robotics work, and can't get good
dialup support anymore.. UUnet basicaly told me.. if you can talk PAP.. we
will suport it.  which made me happy enough to buy a bunch for our linux
sales laptops.

Thank You,
        Ben Kochie (ben@nerp.net)
