said by N3OGH  :I wish my laundry machine e-mailed me when it was done.... I remember in '92, my sophomore year of college, I got FREE dialup service from the college (I lived off campus), and I thought that was the most awesome thing in the world. Now your maytag could someday be a spam zombie.... Heh, I got free dial-up Internet connections in 1995. However, there were only three numbers/POPs for a small university!!
