Cable is better because it's just a very large Ethernet network. It
therefore allows any operating system running TCP/IP to use it. That
includes OS 9, OS X, Linux etc etc.

or I think if you add a "?" to the end of a URL it will force the server
to get the page from the original server rather than it's cache.

For example http://www.prodig.org?

BTW NTL are reducing the price of their 1MB service to GBP 35 inc vat.
