Many people way out in the country have no wired connection except
phone lines, 56k, and if that's all they've got, they'll pay their
$50/month for it (no alternative, remember?).
But more to the point, today's average website takes 5 minutes to load
on dialup. I'm proud that most pages on Troubleshooters.Com still
load reasonably well on dialup. Perhaps that doesn't improve my bottom
line, but I think it makes me a good citizen.
