Yep, sure can. I've been using AOL for USENET, FTP as well as GOPHER (and of course E-MAIL) for some time now. I'm pretty sure Compuserve has the same services. Neither of these two support WWW yet - but Prodigy does. Mabe there are better ways, but I don't have a free student account. These services seem pretty cheap and powerful to me, but I'm here to learn.
