I'm not opposed to going with a commercial line, but I have not yet looked into how much that costs and don't really know what I'm getting myself into. My complaints are not about paying the money - my complaint is about how little their "business" plan gives you for so much money. I'll fork out the bucks, but I'm not going to pay $100+ a month for 384K up. Honestly, the cable company here thinks they are doing you a favor by letting you pay them for bandwidth. They seem to forget one very important business rule - if money flows one way, the butt kissing has to flow the other way. IOW - I give you money, you kiss my butt. The cable company wants both - your money and some butt kissing ;p _______________________________________________ To unsubscribe, edit your list preferences, or view the list archives, please visit: http://list.valvesoftware.com/mailman/listinfo/hlds
