You bring up some good strategic issues. Some comments:

<<The telcos with their regulated monopoly thought processes view DSL as harmfull to their high margin T1 lines.>>

Only for businesses. Residences, ADSL's primary market, do not use T1 lines.

<<Fortunately for all of us, if the PC makers start shipping PCs with DSL modems>>

The PC modems will all work under different standards, since there is no uniformity of service.

<<the consumers will start complaining to their respective Public Utility Commissions (PSC) about their telco not providing DSL service. Enough complaints and the PSCs will mandate a rate cut because the telco is not providing advanced services.>>

We can only hope!
