questions: i have a wire from pole to house that is over 15 years old just sitting there unused ...should I make them put a new one up? i have coaxial cable to the rooms with TVs (2) and room with 2nd TV has the computer ...will that coax (also about 15+ years old but working fine with 40' tower antenna to analog TVs) be good for the new service or do I need to insist they drag a new cable for that ? ...for the internet connection? I intend to replace my dialup (gets about 23kbps speed usually or worse) with the cheapest internet they offer (768kbps) ...that's about the speed of DSL ...that costs $24.95/mo forever ...they also have 6mb/s for 34.95/6mo-->42.95 after which I can change to for $1.99 fee later...I intend to start with the cheapie and see ...comments? I can get "limited" TV for $10/mo x 12mo then $14 after and of course can get more ...I have no HDTVs (hope is to see the bottom of prices this season as nobody has any cash to spare) and see about upgrades but for now will keep analog TV (1984 Sony KV25XBR very nice set) and JVC DR-MV1S (VCR/DVDR dual tuner analog) which are working fine and a little analog screen next to my computer for now ...any comments?
