Starting in April, it will no longer be possible to use a dial-up modem to connect to computers/networks at my workplace.

Next thing you know, they won't allow you to carve your own shoes either!

Well, this *is* academia.

I actually worry about what might happen when Boston University shuts off their modems for good. Ben's mother is retired from BU and all her internet use goes through them, and living in a fairly remote part of Vermont where modems are the only choice available for connectivity. I suppose she'll have to find some way of dialing in to somewhere else, and then connecting to BU from there.
