That's weird, up here at MTU, cable modems are pretty cheap, but they don't
offer DSL here.  It's probably becasue they have a little competition with
Resnet, which really kicks butt this year, I have seen downloads of 100 some
KB/s were as last year when I was stuggleing to get 15 KB/s.  But then again
Resnet is only avaliable in the dorms so if you don't live there you have to
have a friend with a CD burn living in the dorms but there's no shortage of
CD burners here.
