Hello
Earthlink has accelerated dial-up for Mac's but all it does is lower 
the quality of the graphics on a page to make it load faster. I have 
used Earthlink for web-hosting and internet access for several years 
and have no complaints. Best wishes Chris

Someday you will find that there is a difference between wanting and 
having.
