Please let us know if they do! It should be good for the "shock value"! Providers such as SBC usually do not offer a la cart services. Things such as email, some web space, and a cached portal, are part of their bundled service and they think of them as being "free". That would, of course, be spin for *included*. >Do any of you have DSL with Co for year or longer term (not a 3 month >promo) and at what price and terms. >Interested in DSL at a fair price. $24 to $50/mo is about the norm, for residential/personal DSL service. Business grade service (which includes a QoS agreement) usually starts around $100. I'd be more worried about performance tho. Depending on how far you are from your CO, and what flavour DSL they're offering, it can be quite slow. Sometimes slower than a bonded pair of V.90 connections! Check with your local cable company. Most offer 1500 Kbps down and 128 to 256 Kbps up -- faster than DSL... - Dan. -- PCI-PowerMacs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
