Why not Earthlink? AOL, for over eight years has had its mouth attached to my left testicle, sucking away.

Why the Hell would anyone in their right mind still use that utter feces. AOL and Compuserve is the scourge of the internet.

Best 56k service I have ever used (and still do) is SegaNet, believe it or not.

Why would they choose any of those over-loaded networks.  It really sucks for us..  I hope that you don\'t have to sign up for some demented form of AOL to get on-line with your PSx2..

Its okay, as soon as they do get on-line there will be hacks available to get away from the AOhelL stuff..

The Matrix is an AOL time warner property, so maybe something can be worked out.

AOL isn\'t making the Matrix game, and MS is lending lots of money to the developers. Don\'t hold your breath.

While share everyone\'s vile disgust toward AOL, it\'s easy to see why Sony went with them.

AOL/TIMEWARNER IS CURRENTLY LOBBYING WITH THE GOVERNMENT ON A LEGAL WAY TO SWAP MP3s OVER THE NET.

So you can put 2 & 2 together and imagine the next Napster only this time on PS2.

But I still disagree, F u Sony.  We\'ll rape your donkeys.
