Well I have broadband, and I have had an AOL account for the past few years for one, and only one reason... Wherever I travel in the world, there's a very good chance that there'll be a local AOL pop. A friend went on a two year round-the world backpacking trek, including places like Tibet, and there he was in Kathmandu (ironically on 9/11 last year watching the news in Chinese and asking me what was going on via AIM) connected via good old 'moronic' AOL.
