:For the ->average person<- who probably isn't a computer scientist, or
:aleph-class hacker, PLink has more to offer.  The rate of uploads to
:Plink simply is not matched elsewhere (I don't know about GEnie).  The
:upload rate to BIX is but a dribble compared to Plink's.  The hourly
:rate can be brought to well under $3/hr via PC-Pursuit.  And PLink
:offers WXModem, which is about the fastest transfer protocol I've
:seen.  None of the other nets support this.

	I'm still waiting for them to implement DNet  :-) <grin>
