[ILUG] Esat -VS- OceanFree -VS- ???

[ILUG] Esat -VS- OceanFree -VS- ???

I currently use OceanFree, because it was the first 'Free' ISP when I happened
to figure out how to dial-in to the net. I've recently installed xisp, and
really like it, except I have to login as root to use it. I recently tried
setting it to dial into EsatClear SurfFree, and got lots of busy signals and
other unrecognised tones before it finally connected. OceanFree connects
first-time, everytime. But I wanted to find out who has the best service in the
free ISP market. Esat has 10M of web space and unlimited E-Mails, whereas
OceanFree doesn't seem to have any web-space or E-Mails??? I would go with Esat,
but not if I'm not going to be able to connect most of the time.

SO, who has recommendations for free ISP's. Based on connectability, and E-Mails
and web-space available, for the cost of a local call?

Cheers,

     John Gay
