As to getting an Internet account, most are cheaper than you think. The
average cost these days is $25 per month for shell, $35 for SLIP/PPP.
And usually if it's a local dial-in you either have no limit on hours per
month or the figure is so high you'll never reach it (unless you're on
all day like me.)

Locally, an outfit has just started to offer Slip/PPP for $20 a month, 120
hours. All the basic services are available such as ftp and www. I have also
heard that in another city not far away, $15 / month service is available but
I don't know the details.
