1999 SPCUG ISP Member Survey Results
In the last issue of Sacra Blue, we asked members to fill out a survey to rate Internet service providers (ISPs) we used during the past two years. We received over 100 surveys that rated 38 different ISPs. This article includes a look at the results of those surveys and lists our members' choice ISPs. If you're looking for a new ISP, be sure to read this article to learn what members think of their ISPs.
