To start us off, Donald's ISP is Freeserve.
They provide 15Mb webspace and don't have any
monthly charges, just the price of a local call.
From Donald (again!) : Abel Gratis
A Scottish ISP who I believe know about Amigas.
They used to host this web site. They provide 50Mb webspace
and don't insist on putting adverts on your site.
From Pete Ross : Colloquium
An ISP hidden in Paisley somewhere!
They give access to normal local rate numbers, but the great
thing is they also give dialup numbers on the NTL-CableTel
network into their server. This will give you free calls after
6pm and all weekend (and bankholidays) if you are with NTL.
I've been with Colloquium for over a year now, and have
recomended MANY people to use it, including Zimzum who seems to
be happy with his phone bill from �160 a month to �5!
They charge �14.10 a month, and have very friendly people at
the other side of the phone 24 hours. And they also know I use
an Amiga and often help me when I need it!!
From Tony Paice : Totalise
From Flavvy Antionetti : Boing
I use this ISP since it is a) free and b) easy to set up with
the added benefit of being anonymous.
By going to its website you get all the details needed
to enter into Miami to get started :
Password - boing Username - boing-genk@dial4
and telephone number - 0845 660 3765.
The only two problems are that it is a 0845 number and therefore costs the
same as a local call. And you don't get any web space or email addresses but
once you are on the web you can easily find those yourself.
The good thing about being anonymous on the web is that you can ..... ......
well, use your imagination :-)
From Francis G. Loch : NTL
