[OPLINLIST] Branch Internet

[Stephen Hedges]

Cinda and all -

Whenever you think about refining your network, please remember that OPLIN
is _very_ happy to provide advice and ideas.  As you all know, there seem
to be a lot of options on the market right now, some good and some not so
good, and in the near future there will be even more options.  The OPLIN
network support team tries to stay informed about what's good and what's
not, so you might want to call us, especially Don Nuss (614-728-5252, AIM:
OPLINPM).
