Yes, I am. An ISP here in Calgary (formerly one of the old Freenets) is still providing connections via terminal emulation quite cheaply. You hook up to an AIX shell account which offers Pine as e-mail, and Lynx (not MacLynx) as a browser. My interface to this is Dave Alversons great program ZTerm 1.0.1. This same ISP does offer a PPP connection (apparently also via terminal emulation, they say -- Im not sure how that works), and I am going to see if I can add it so that I can run Eudora 1.3.1 for e-mail. This probably wont last much longer, but for the time being I get a hoot out of using Unix not with OS XS but with good old System 6!
