Here's my horror story....

I tried to upgrade my Ameritech/SBC/AT&T dialup but DSL is not available here. The archaic telco did offer 128k ISDN but wanted $200/mo just for the line, ISP was an additional charge.

Thankfully, Comcast CABLE offers 8800k HSI for a much more reasonable fee. Comcast cable ROCKS!

Now, where do I collect my ipod?

I could get cable TV where I used to live, if I ponied up the couple thousand for them to run the line. Not sure if that included internet.

Reminds me of a T1 quote I got from some CLEC back around 2000-2001. If I recall correctly, it was ~$3000 install and $1200/month for 2 year contract. Ouch!

Gawd I love Comcast!!
