Hi frank,
Kastel since we moved our ISP to Shaw Cable
I only wish :o)
Actually I was an early adopter of cable and Shaw was my provider. It had it's ups and downs but was pretty good. I have DSL as I need to maintain a backup connection anyway. So DSL is cheaper than maintaining a spare phone line (actually chucked the FAX line too) and a good dialup ISP (I had Sprint). Problem is now we have Rodgers after Shaw and Rodgers did their deal last year with Shaw getting the West and Rodgers getting the East.
Unfortunately for us Rodgers subscribers Rodgers relies heavily on the @HOME service for infrastructure whereas Shaw has spent time building up their own network and really don't need @HOME for infrastructure.

Unfortunately all my machines are sorely in need of reinstalls of Windows, so that is also a factor.
