Question:

SWBell (My ISP) just telemarketed me for DSL. I told them I would drool over the prospect but had to decline because I also used my dial-up when I go to work.

That is, at home on this box, I dial up and surf away at 52,000 bps or whatever. Then when I go to work, I dial up from there (same number ~ different phone line, different box) and log on and actually accomplish stuff.

Both boxes not simultaneously, of course. But they tried to tell me I could still do that with DSL for $39.95/month.

What's the deal ~ am I mixed up (likely prospect) or are they confused (a more likely prospect)?
