If I decided to stay with DSL, how painfull would it > be to switch to Real-Time? Actually it's pretty darn easy if you already get DSL service from Qwest. A friend of mine did the switch from Qwest to Real-time a few months ago without any problems. My only questions is, why haven't you guys switched over to Real-time already? We all know they have great support, you get a block of IPs, and they even give the TCLUG deals from time-to-time. Plus Bob never sleeps so he's always there to answer your questions. Rumor has it that they're Linux friendly too. ;-)
