Do they have America Online in the U.K.?

How would you know what AOL v3.0 is like? It doesn't go live for a few
more weeks.  I'm running the beta now, and it's GREAT. It has support for
html 3.0 built in, and for links in e-mail (among other things).  If I
ever find my aol address embarrassing, I'll change providers.  I find the
goof-up newbies, and self-rightious blow-hards embarrassing.

BTW- the font used by notepad, dos, unix, lynix, etc. is called 'system'
or 'terminal', and it's been around as long as the computer terminal has
existed. You can't have written words without SOME font.  Most people
think of a system or terminal font when dealing with ascii art. Others,
like AOL, use newer fonts.
