The harassment by SBC is bordering on criminal. The last notice I got was so threatening that I nearly switched just to avoid them hassling me. Luckily, when attempting to link my current Yahoo ID with the new SBC one during the process, they kept on claiming that my Yahoo ID was invalid (yes, it was typed correctly). Funny that, since Yahoo I.M. was running quite contently at the same time. I gave up and sent them a nasty email.

DaveW,the choice between DSL & cable was actually very simple. Ask anyone living in a densely populated/subscribed area how their cable speed is between 6pm and 9pm every evening and you'll have your answer. I know cable people from Detroit to SF who grind their teeth every night during those hours. My DSL speed is consistent regardless of how many of my neighbors sign up. Yours isn't.
