[NTLUG:Discuss] Any Linux Friendly ISPs left?

[Darin Smith]

My ISP got bought out by Internet America a couple of years ago, and I
thought I'd have to change,
but Internet America has been great...I get a busy signal once about every 9
months...five minutes later I'm back to another 9 month stretch without
problems.  They also support Linux, even going so far as to have screen
captures showing how to set up your connection in Red Hat and how to
configure several popular email EUAs.

I'm very pleased.  My only problems seem to lie with the telephone
companies.

front of me right now.
