Re: "<off topic>I had ISDN, but then Pac Bell up'ed the fee's and I found that cable modem was actually cheaper. I regularly get 50K/second downloads and I've never seen a slowdown due to anything but the speed of the server. If I have any complaint, its that the DNS isn't as lightning fast as the download speeds." Likewise. My downloads approach 100K Bytes per second if I can find a good server. PacBell is now selling DSL service for $49.95 at 384Kilo Bits per second. I don't think ISDN has much of a future. EP
