Hah.  I haven't written more than 5 checks in the last year.  I do all
my bill paying in Netscape.  I heartily recommend SFNB as a bank.
They are an internet bank (supposedly the first one, too).  They offer
free interest checking with some pretty reasonable number of checks.

They have only 1 branch, and it's in Atlanta (Buckhead).  Fortunately,
they will also pay your ATM fee at other banks--up to 2 withdrawals a
month.

It's pretty easy to use and way more convenient that using paper
checks (which they do provide, I might add).  Also, I figure that I
save $3 per month in stamps.  Not a lot, but it adds up.
