Due to some circumstances I will be moving to a apartment in Greenville. While it is slightly smaller than this house it DOES have a phone jack in the wall. When I move there I will look in to a dialup ISP. Would any 'ol place with a phone jack in the wall be able to get a dialup isp?

Sweet! What Dialup ISP would I want for Greenville :?: .

Also: I'll probably sign up for the ISP on Friday when the TV (and the DC!) are in the place. Anybody willing to give me a '4 n00bs' tutorial on how to get a dialup ISP to use with the DC?

And: Does anybody ever play PSO on SCHTHACK? I know people play on DCTALK but I can't allways make schedules :D . I would like to know if I can just log on any 'ol hour of the day and find somebody on SCHTHACK. If not I will just go on every now and again there and schedule games for DCTALK.

Lots of people play the DC compatible version of Q3 right?

Hey: Would anybody care to tell me which ISP I would use in Greenville SC? Is my best bet Juno or Netzero or what?

Yes, you can even get a free NetZero there. It's only 10 hours a month, but it's free!

I am pretty sure netzero/juno does not work on the Dreamcast anymore.

Go for http://vtisp.com/. Another user here recently subscribed to them and got his Dc online.
