My ISP (who also resells DSL service) said the $44.95/mo deal SWB is
offering is not just the best deal in Austin, but the best deal in the
entire country (on reason the ISP only resells SDSL ;-) ).
One gotcha - if you use SWB as your ISP you'll have to use PPP over
ethernet as SWB hasn't heard of DHCP yet (what do you expect from a
telephone monopoly, anyway?)

they had to add a new digit, and yet no evidence of economic disruption.
And then a millennium before, we had dates going down, and then they
started going up, and yet no evidence of disruption or chaos in the
economy. So if they could do it then, surely we can deal with it now,
it seems to me."
