Ok, that just plain sucks. So you can't get the best ISP, the best local telco, and the best TV deals, only companies who try to do all of them, regardless of quality. I'm sorry, but I don't care about TV or the POTS, and if I did I would want to sign up with 'the best' for each of them, not some random provider just because they do all three. ~ Nathan -------------------- BYU Unix Users Group http://uug.byu.edu/ The opinions expressed in this message are the responsibility of their author.
