I had dial-up forever, and I still would have it, but it got discontinued in my town!! Can you believe that? I got a letter that said there was not enough interest in dial-up here, so it would not be offered anymore. So I got broadband that is bundled with my land line phone service, and I love it. It was an easy "do-it-yourself" installation, and it's much, much faster and more reliable than my dial-up. So--I was forced into changing, but I'm happy about it.
