[Ham-Computers] What ISP for an Old Computer

[Jim Hill]

Hi:
I'm helping an impoverished friend get on the net.  He has a donated old 
computer, an ACER with only 24 megs of ram.  Unfortunately, at least 32 
megs of ram is needed for all ISP' s we have checked, aside from possibly 
AOL.  My friend doesn't have a credit card, and AOL chargers an additional 
$5.00/mo for billing.  I've looked for additional ram, but no luck so far. 
Also, I'm not sure it's a good idea to spend any money upgrading that computer.

Can anybody suggest a suitable ISP?
Thanks, Jim, w6ivw
