No pecan pie??? That ain't right. Bad pecan tree!!!
Yeah computer!!!
It depends on if you want to go dial up or even if DSL is offered in your area. And then there is cable internet.
Dial up is the cheapest, but not from AOL.
PC online and netzero are some I've heard of that are cheaper, but may have lots of popup ads with those. You might ask whoever your phone carrier is what they charge for dial up. Sometimes, it's cheaper when you have a "package deal" with your phone and internet with the same company. I know SBC offers dial up, I just don't know how much it is.
