You'll want their latest AOL Desktop which can be found here:

Last version I tried had issues in the compose mail section where VO didn't echo what I typed and such. I also noticed the installer has some modal dialogs which after hitting OK I still had to navigate to the Next button to continue the install. The AIM chat log was also kind cumbersome to navigate around in. It's getting there as far as accessibility but not 100% yet.

You could also try out their webmail at

mail.aol.com

or try setting up Apple Mail to suck down email messages. Found a FAQ here:

Apple hasn't shipped a modem in their machines for sometime. Broadband penetration these days is high enough that the majority of users aren't doing dialup.

Hi Everyone,
I will be on vacation next week and will not have access to high speed internet. I will need to use AOL and dial up. How accessible is AOL with VO? Where can I get a veraion for mac to install on my macbook? I am pretty sure that I will need to purchase a USB modem, because my macbook doesn't have an internal one. Correct me if I'm wrong; I got my macbook in December, and I don't see a jack for a modem.
Thanks for any help.
Olivia
