The equine clinician network and other computer services for equine practitioners

摘要

Internet access requires a computer with a modem (or equivalent), and the software for connection to email via phone lines. Numerous companies supply this software under various names. Some of the bigger companies are America Online and CompuServe, Advertisements in journals, newspapers, and computer stores can be a good starting point. After the software is installed, you must contact and pay a fee to a service provider. These companies will assign you an email address from which you can send and receive electronic mail. From here you are ready to join the "information superhighway."
