_Dell intros free Net access_

Dell Computer introduced a free, unlimited Internet access service in the
United Kingdom today. The company also said it has plans to introduce such
services in Europe this year. DellNet is available to all comers, not just
users of the company's PCs. Users pay no fee to Dell, but do have to pay
per-minute charges to British Telecommunications for phone calls. DellNet is
also included on new Dell Dimension PCs.
