If you are wanting a shell isp try www.shellworld.net
$19/mo for a shell or ppp connection. $11 for just a shell to which you
can telenet to if you already have a connection to the net. Most latest
pine and lynx plus more.
Anyways what is this Newdeal anyways? If it runs on top of dos is it a
gui like w31?
