I recently purchased a Teleport modem for my Mac which included a 
free (1 month) subscription offer to America Online.  I would like
to get the Nets opinion of America Online before subscribing.  

Is the service worth the $5.95 a month?  How responsive is the system
during the evenings and weekends?  Is the system so slow that you use
up your monthly hour waiting for the system to respond?  
My primary interest is in downloading free or shareware programs.  
Does America Online have a large archive?  How easy is the navigation
software to use?  Any other comments?

Thanks for your advice,
Rodney
