Re: They could hire me

If you need to run a server or have business needs you should use the business end otherwise you use the residential version. If you are running a server on a residential line be careful. A lot of ISPs consider that a TOS violation and could cancel your service. Cox blocked port 25 and it made people mad. I am glad they did it though. A lot of people who were complaining about not being able to do business and stuff with port 25 blocked were on residential lines and they were forced either to cancel service or get the business service. Either way it cut down the crap on residential lines.

In theory that makes perfect sense. In practice, paying for Comcast's Small Biz package does nothing for you. No static IP, can't run a server, I'm still using the same hardware I was on the residential side. All I'm getting for the addition $40/mo is a quicker response time if my circuit goes down.
