My ISP asked me if I would like to receive my setup data by fax or by
snail-mail. Also they asked me if I would like to receive also a free
CD-ROM designed especially to assist in the setup configuration of WIN-95
machines for use with the ISP. When I told them I use DOS, they just said
I can just go ahead and do it my own way if I want; however, they did advise
me that they would offer no support for DOS users, other than to provide
information needed for setup.
