My bone headed observation on DSL, since I have no technical background.

BellSouth gave me an Alcatel ADSL modem.

The telecom equipment makers have had quite a run over the last few months and many are laughably high. So I think you missed the easy money. I wonder how long before the buzz is that DSL's profit margins are too tough, like the analog modem business?

I take French as a hobby, keep up with the French news, and go there occasionally. I must admit I've hesitated buying Alcatel simply because it is a French company. France is a great country to live in if you don't have to make a living. I also heard that because the country is run by a small, elite clique then someone like Bill Gates is impossible there. But oh what a wonderful culture!!! They are in serious need of a Margaret Thatcher.
