gotta agree...We've got cable modem..when it's good, it's GREAT...otherwise..it sucks. And our service has had a LOT of server/email issues that just don't seem to want to go away. I think I'd go with a good DSL package as well...but it's not available in our area yet...too far away from the telco...whaaaaaaaaa.

don't know about adsl...I had dsl...just got cable because of move.@home is somewhat faster than my dsl through uswest was.Streaming media seems much better. Hard to say but probably like anything else different companies have better quality product. Show you what I know I thought ADSL was just for small businesses. I use a little trick and go around the local proxies to avoid the bottle neck of traffic.So far so good.

Great MM article...

Mr. Pasternak sat before a screen at Knight/Trimark Group Inc., a
market maker whose job it is to execute trades. His screen
showed that orders to buy Egghead exceeded orders to sell by
100,000 shares. Because it would be Knight's job to fill those
orders, Mr. Pasternak quickly went to work, buying up 50,000
shares in informal trading before the market opened. When it did
open -- with Egghead sharply higher -- he sold them to online
buyers, nailing a quick $15,000 profit.
