We use Easy Internet by Internet Training Corporation (www.ezn.com). Our
customers love it and it has reduced out cost for providing Tech Support.
Runs about 3.99 per CD. If you contact them, Try to reach Scott. Tell him
I sent you.

We also use THE-ROM (www.the-rom.com). We give these out at trade shows or
mailings. The reason we give these away is because they have a lower price
tag which keeps my cost down when dealing with a potential customer. If
they become a memebr, they get the other one I mentioned above. The-Rom
runs about 1.80 - 2.00 per CD and then you pay $1 when they use it to
signup. It does like AOL, it calls a 1-800 number and configures
everything for them. The other one has your config on the CD.
