I guess it depends on the pricing in your area and what you really need. I know over twenty people in the Northern Virginia area that got FIOS and for them it is cheaper and provides more bandwidth than their previous phone / Internet / TV combination. Not to mention that over the last year it has been significantly more reliable than cable Internet / TV, and faster than Satellite. -- John DeCarlo, My Views Are My Own ************************************************************************ * ==> QUICK LIST-COMMAND REFERENCE - Put the following commands in <== * ==> the body of an email & send 'em to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <== * Join the list: SUBSCRIBE COMPUTERGUYS-L Your Name * Too much mail?
