Edmonton, AB | the information was across the street... how come the writer didn't ask his buddy what he had in the first place? |

| I think the writer's point is that he is a cheap ass and he has been either leaching on his friend's access (with or without permission) or splitting the bill. Now that he has to get his own access he is now bitching about the price compared to what he has been paying. |

It looked to me more like a tongue in cheek commentary on the hassles of getting broadband service. It's obvious his "friends" (as he describes them) whom he was sharing access with had cable, since he had a hassle at first getting DSL.
I thought it was quite revealing and such, myself. Nice how the media is starting to pay attention, especially now with things starting to heat up between cable and DSL.
