If an ISP uses standard stuff, likely PPP (Point-to-Point Protocol), then Linux will work fine--and likely it will work fine with your current ISP. Unless, however, you use AOL or MSN (I think), then you need to deal with their special protocols, and there is no Linux support for that. If you go to DSL then the question becomes more subtle, but you said dial-up... (blech) What is your current ISP? Are they decent for you in general? -kb, the Kent who used to long for the day he would hear the sound of a modem connecting and say: "I haven't heard *that* in ages!", and now he has reached that point, and he is glad of it.
