DSL or cable? by tallastro 2005-08-09 08:47:38
I want to get a faster connection so I'm shopping around. I don't need super fast but I'd like it to be reliable. In my area, I have Earthlink (DSL or cable), BellSouth (DSL), and RoadRunner/TimeWarner (cable) as the choices. Oh, my household is linux only too. What do you think?
