We all played on dial up for years before braodband and it worked for us. So I say give it a bash :)

Why thank you, though I must also note that I either play well or am utterly pants - consistency has never been my strong point :)

I have a cruddy internal 56k modem and I connect via AOL - if I can manage with that setup, your friend should have no problems.
