>No DSL in this neighborhood either, but RR suffices. RR is $50/mo. while Qwest DSL is $20+[ISP fee]/mo. My company will pick-up the ISP fee (through goldengate.net), so I'd rather not go cable (plus AOL-TimeWarner is evil :). BTW, I called up RR and they said they're service is not Linux-compatible. I'm running Mandrake 7.2 with the Netscape browser on RR...no problem. It's slower, but internet access was automatically configured via my NIC at install. Ya think he's avoiding the issue because he doesn't know?...it's "the cable company" after all?
