Yup, the blight of living in country charm. We're 1500' from Comcast

but
our cell phone reception here is marginal at best (damn beautiful
mountains!). I'm on the verge of bending over for satellite but the
thought of $700 up front and $60-70 a month, plus the lag time up to
the satellite and back, and poor upload speeds, has given me pause...

Peter, maybe it's time for you to move down to Duvall. I'm 4 miles out
from Duvall, and yet, I've cable access and access to optical verizon
cable. That said, I'm still on dialup. Just haven't made the switch
yet.
Seriously thinking about it, though, since it'd be nice to use that
bright
B&W box that's sitting next to my G3 accelerated 9600.
John,
Thanks but moving is one of my least favorite things to do. We built
this log house in 1990 (still building, actually ;) on an acre of land
in the woods here on Whidbey Island. Seattle area traffic is scary!
I'm just an old [EMAIL PROTECTED] set in my ways. Gotta moan about SOMEthing
though. 8^D
