Depending on where you are located, there are many "Freenets" around the 
country.  This means that it is a local call and it is free, gratis!  True,
you probably would not get the nice pictures and point and click environment,
but I sure like the cost of it.  If you are interested, email me and I can
give you a couple names of some Freenets in your area (if they exist there).

HTH,
