[footfootfoot]

OKay, bear wit me here. I just got me one of them there pea seas and I am now eligible for womanband connection (is that the politcally corrected term for broadband?)

anyway, verizon has a deal where I can get unlimited calling, Long distance, short distance, intermediate distance, plus DSL for $75/month, taxes included.

Sounds good to me, vis a vis, current phone charges plus my blistering 56k dialup = (where is my "option" key?) $75/month

cable would be about $30 more.

verizon dude claims that I would be getting about 3Mb/s versus 56kb/s. seems faster on paper.

Is cable any better?

I appreciate any answers. I can repay you with long, involved technical questions about the lost art of "wet ptrocess, silver based photography" for want of a better term.

anxiously awaiting higher speed connection.

also, this whole windows thing is kinda weird, but it feels like when I switched form AOL to a real ISP.

I guess I am at the foot of a learnig curve. possibly a learning curve as well.
