Yes, there are many ISP's there, including TNT (thuntek). Perhaps a better way to phrase my thought would be, 'Can we organize this so somebody can find somebody useful?'. I think it is very important that we support each other: ISP's to give us access to the full benefit of their systems, and users to support the ISP's. I know that I'm going to be able to make far better use of TNT's resources than I would Earthlink's, for example. Likewise, as a FreeBSD user, I can accomplish far more than a W95 user with any provider. This kind of synergy is something we should all realize and promote, because it showcases the power of FreeBSD and its high-powered connectivity capabilities. -- oooOOO O O O o * * * * * * o ___ _________ _________ _________ ___==__ V_=_=_DW ===--- Don Wilde dwilde1@thuntek.net [ = = ] /oo0000oo-oo--oo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-ooo---ooo-oo---oo To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-isp" in the body of the message
