SouthWind was recently taken over by EarthLink.  The SouthWind I
subscribed to - almost since they started - does not exist
anymore.  Local tech support does not exist.  I can no longer
access my shell acct., and have been unable to contact anyone to
find out what to do about this, because I have been unwilling to
wait on HOLD longer than 15 minutes.  I have been told by other
SouthWind subscribers (who have been able to get hold of tech
support) that there is NO LINUX SUPPORT to be found.  At this
point I am looking for a new ISP.

What Jeremy said re:SouthWind was correct until several months
ago.  This is not the situation now.
