Cable vs DSL Keep us posted on how you like this. I wanted to get cable and then run it into a small server I have and then share it with the two PC's I have in my house. But I had heard varying results from some of my friends. They say at times when everyone in their node is on, its no faster than a modem. So I still have my 56K modem, which is not bad. I've installed DSL for a few clients and have been impressed with the speed. These were only 256K lines but I downloaded a few big files in the middle of the day and it was speedy. These are dedicated connections and not shared bandwidth like cable. I live a little too far for DSL so I'm still waiting to see what happens in the next 6 months. High speed bandwidth is surely where some big money is going to be made over the next few years. Whoever comes up with a better solution than we have now will be hot. Orygun
