Not worth the six bucks? Buddy, get this sucker and give it to your parents or something for christmas. heck, it'd make a darn fine wedding gift! just claim that it's a $73 value..
There is room for ANYBODY ANYWHERE on the internet. You don't want religion to have a presence on the internet. So, stemming from that, we should censor out all beliefs present on web pages and such. You can't start separating out what should and shouldn't be on the internet. Maybe people don't want your God-forsaking atheism to violate their surfing time. Did you ever take that into consideration?
And no arguments that there are other places and other times for religion. Because there are other places and other times for atheism as well: the public schooling system.
And anyways, just because some organization says that they're going to name someone as the protector of all who travel the 'info superhighway', doesn't mean you have to observe that naming, or wear a medallion or anything.
I called Bell/Sympatico the other day and this is what I found out.
Adsl is available on business lines. These lines are the same as residential lines, except they cost more, and don't have some restrictions on them that residential lines do. Adsl is their 2.2 downstream service.
Sympatico High Speed edition is the stripped down version of adsl for residential customers.
The reason for the higher cost of business lines compared to residential lines is part of the profit from business lines goes directly to reducing the cost of residential lines. I believe that this was originally this was so everyone could afford tele service.
Anyways, I'd like to hear if this residential/business line distinction is the same in the US...
