i have a really stupid question

I think you're going to have to have a phoneline, Sara, for anything other than cable to work.

Good luck!

Cable or satellite

I have Cable line I love it I could not go back to dial up. The $17.00 more a month would be worth it no worring about can I get on or slow speeds.

Most definitely! But I'm pretty sure only if you have cable/satellite.
But let me tell you, I've never had dial up and never want to have it. I'd skimp on other things rather than go to dial up

Yeah, you would have to activate the phone line in your apartment. Which means in addition to the NetZero cost you would also be paying a monthly service fee to the phone company for the use of the line. So add that cost into the cost for NetZero and then compare it with cable or satelite. Dial-up may not be cheaper when you factor in the cost of both services. (I am a dial-up user, but I use the phone line as my main source of communication so it is cheaper for me.)
