TECHNOLOGY ARRIVES IN SILICON VALLEY!!!!!!

Tony and the rest of you Silicon Valley residents, call Pac Bell immediately. They are rolling out dsl as we speak. If you are within a <unspecified distance> from a sub office, you are eligible. The price is $39/mo. plus $10/mo. for their isp services.

Note: I'm paying $20 for Earthlink and $25 for my second phone line and logging in at 52Kbaud. With the Pac Bell service I am guaranteed 384Kbaud*, and since I am within 3500 feet of the sub station, they think I might connect as high as 1.5Mbaud.

I signed up, and they should install in the next 2 weeks. I will let you know how it works out <g>.

*I'm guessing at that number, as I didn't write it down, so don't quote me on it.
