Getting on the net was a snap. If you are using a straight terminal package like Procomm, it is just a matter of telling procomm where the modem is and go. If you want slip or ppp, just use the dial-up networking. Works like a charm. You can continue to use your old email package without any changes or if you want to use MS Exchange just get a MAPI mail server for it. This can be obtained by getting the latest beta of Netscape (I haven't tried this one) or Microsofts Internet Explorer, which is 100% free from their web site (www.windows,microsoft.com). I have not had ONE OUNCE of trouble. ALTHOUGH You CAN use the old tcpman or something like that to connect. That works fine too. Kevin
