[olug] Omaha area ISP's

[Nathan D. Rotschafer]

Qwest is also something to look at...I have had a year of high speed  
at $21.99 and they just offered me the option to renew at the same  
pricing.  While more that the $10/month already suggested...for high  
speed it is a good deal if they might want to email pictures or  
anything like that....

Just some thoughts,
Nate
