If you are starting a *SMALL* e-commerce business, you can probably start it up for about the same as a phone installation... :-) Shared web-server: $35 setup + $20/month (or less) Registration: $10/year CCNow or similar processing: very small setup fee, moderate cut of each transaction. Telephone setup, in Chicago at least, is quite expensive, and probably is more than that. At least, it was 15 years ago when I moved in :-) -- WARNING richard@zend.com address is an endangered species -- Use ceo@l-i-e.com Wanna help me out? Like Music?
