I suppose there's really nothing keeping me on AOL except inertia--I have frequent freezes when I'm on line, particularly in the spell checker for email, and about once a week I get a "Yoor service has been inadvertently terminated" message that has nothing to do with my forgetting to answer in the affirmative to the "Do you want to stay online?" dialog box that opens up every fifteen minutes.

One thing in their favor: They frequently have sales on programs such as Stuffit that are 30% lower than the prices at the mail order houses such as Mac (PC) Warehouse. That is one of the things keeping me with them, maybe the only.
