I became disgusted with AOL's very slow browser waayyyy back when I was
connected with a Packard Bell 80486/33.

I moved to a local ISP using Netscape and was amazed at how "fast" web
browsing could really be.

I recognize there are those who like AOL, but I can't endorse it for it's
clutter and lack of speed.
