Bandwidth failures Hi Pat - I've been keeping a low profile the last few weeks...it's nice to not have to care anymore, at least for myself. ;-)) There was something in the news recently, and I personally thought it was boderline huge, but I haven't seen a single post about it on the threads I monitor. I'm referring to SBC's DSL rate hike, from $39.95 to 49.95. I've read in several places over the past couple of years that selling DSL for $40/month is not profitable. If SBC, et al, are able to increase the monthly fee, and make it stick without losing customers, this will bode well for the telecom sector, since it'll be profitable for them to invest (truely "invest" rather than "speculate") in more gear. It'll be interesting (it always is!) :-)) Steve
