	They don't care what OS you are using. They are good with Unix/Linux systems 
and Windows as well.
	I like their service. As far as I know many people from TLUG mail-list was 
moved from Rogers/Sympatico to Istop and I always recommend Istop to my 
friends.
	Istop give you fixed IP, they allow to have servers on your side, they have 
25 Gb combined traffic, but from 2am to 10 am you can use unlimited traffic, 
which is convinient. In this case I have a cron which is restarts the pppoe 
connection at 2:05 am and at 9:55 am. also I have a script which downloads 
all necessary big files from the net via wget.
	And all this pleasure costs only 30 CAD a month for 3 Mbps.
