! I AGREE !

I think everyone has summed up my feelings on dialup verses broadband. I for one would NEVER go back to dialup.

This article is a subjective article - what you don't know you won't miss.

The real truth is that people don't buy into broadband
because either they can't afford it or #1 reason
they can't get it because it's not available in there area.

Dialup will be a thing of the past eventually and unlike that article it's not BULLSH#T.

Well nowadays like mentioned above, DSL is as cheap as $30/month now so it can't be THAT much more then dial-up if you only have 1 phone line, so I think you can kind of rule out the budget costs reason. I would say the #1 reason is because of availability, like you say. I would say another is laziness and/or they don't use the internet enough to care about a broadband connection.
