I use Comcast cable. Not the greatest (I'd prefer DSL, if a. I could
get faster than 640k, and b. it weren't on Verizon's network), but
it's certainly far better than dialup.

Printing under unix (and Linux) is a bit strange, but it can be done in
most cases. Check the Printing-HOWTO (available at many sites, one of
which is www.linux.org) for information on setting up a printer.
