I have heard about small companies that provide internet connections for a fee ... does anyone know of one in the NYC/NJ area? I'm about to (shudder) graduate and would like to maintain contact with these forums. If anyone knows of a better place to post this, please let me know. Thanks, Brad

Well, this doesn't have anything to do with the mac, but... :-) You can call Meetpoint Station BBS in sceneic Queens. It is a public access unix site. The number is (718)424-4183. The cost is only $5/month. They have full email/usenet connectivity in both directions. You will have to call by voice (718)335-8719 to set up your account. If you have any questions, you can send mail to the sysop: dave@msb.com Cheers, Chris ------------------------------+--------------------------- Chris Mauritz |Show me the way to the cmm1@cunixa.cc.columbia.edu |next whiskey bar... mpoint%cmm1@uu.psi.com |-The Doors-

I am also about to graduate and concerned about losing my internet access! I
am looking for access in the Baltimore, MD area. Does anyone know of a
company or college that sells accounts to be able to read news, send mail and
ftp? How about Johns Hopkins? Do they offer accounts to the general public?
Thanks!

I am yet another senior with this same problem, but would like to approach
this from a different perspective. How does one go about setting up their own
system to be connected to internet? I am running a Macintosh SE/30 with 5 megs
and will have shortly 140 megs of disk space, and be running AUX. I have been c
ollecting mail servers, ect. I know this is going to cost some $$$s, but if
anyone has any idea who to contact and what I have to do please E-mail me and
post it for the rest of the interested users here.
Thanks,

Performance Systems Internat- ional, INC. 1-800-82PSI82. They also have a internet mailaddress (big sur- prise ;-} ) but I don't have it right here. They have Dialup service for the NYC/NJ area in the 201-645-xxxx & 212-608-xxxx regions. Nearby Phili 215-563-xxxx. Also Albany, rochester, syracuse, white plains NY. Boston, chicago, detroit, hartford, L.A., Mtn View Ca, Pitt, reston VA, Santa Clara ca, Washinton DC, and probably a few other by now. But as you said, It ain't cheap (probably). al -- Al.
