I used to work for a dialup ISP. It employed about 60 people, and not a single coworker I knew had dialup at home. The general manager held out for a long time because he didn't think it was right to take the paycheck that fed his family and use it to help the competition, but even he caved eventually. The owner of the company had to dial in from a hotel once. He said "This is awful! I feel bad for selling this crap to people!"

The problem with America is stupidity.
I'm not saying there should be a capital punishment
for stupidity, but why don't we just take the safety
labels off of everything and let the problem solve itself?

*=When it works. Mine freakin' smokes, and I'm only on the intermediate tier of speed. But having worked tech support for Cox for a few months (the Phoenix and Tucson markets), I can tell you that not everyone can get a decent cable signal.
Im in this boat, all the people in other parts of my city get great speeds. When my cable decides to work its marginally ok.
Im considering getting DSL, and switching to satellite TV, Just because I hate comcast sooo much. They wont do jack sht to fix my cabel issues

I debated getting Road Runner Service through Time Warner. Their monthly fee was a bit too high for me.

RR in my area is junk. Even at the fabled 5Mbs, Buckeye Express at 3.5Mbs is superior. Not only superior in speed, but RR sucks in cutomer service also. And didnt RR sellout some of their customers to the record companies over the MP3 illegal downloads? IMO if you have another option besides RR, take it.

I love me some FIOS!
I've actually never had a problem with it, except for the customer service aspect (trying to get them to come out and install it, it took a little longer than expected). But customer service wise (phone support etc) they are great.
What I really like is that pretty soon, I'll be getting my TV over the Fiber Optic also!!
