Comments on download speeds and network connections:
They are great when it comes to this. Downloads speeds from fast servers are always high and web pages load up responsively.

Comments on E-mail Service:
E-mail is always great, and I don't think they have any limitations in this area (i.e. attachment size limits.)

Comments on Usenet Service:
They don't have their own Usenet servers, so you have to use Digex's (nnrp.digex.net). This server carries posts only briefly before deleting them.

Comments on Tech Support and Customer Service:
They are friendly and fairly knowledgable.

Additional Services Offered:
They offer 5 MB of webspace. You'll be charged $1/MB of traffic if traffic to your site exceeds 50MB/month.

Services blocked off (i.e. IRC):
None

Additional Comments:
None... The rating pretty much explains it.

Overall Rating (1 to 12, 12 being best): 11
