They seem to be completley different from when they used to be simplenet. Personally as an ex user of simplenet, I would never go with them again, even if they are yahoo!

This is what they are hoping you'll think if they slap the Yahoo name on it. Dell did the same thing, and hasn't gotten high marks on the boards due to their actual provider not being all that wonderful. I don't know much about their provider, but judge them based on that, not the name brand (if it's Yahoo, it's gotta be good...)
