[/caption]Upgrade your Web Access. New macs don’t even come with modems. You have to special order them or find them on eBay (good luck with that!). This is clearly an indicator to the speed progress the web has made a necessity. Try downloading an update to Tiger OS 10.4 on dialup and you can actually watch your teeth fall out. Let’s hope you never want to watch Youtube.com vids or need to download any software. Many of the tasks we perform today are directly related to an internet connection.
DSL is very cheap, in fact a few years ago it was cheaper than Dial-up. Some of my clients were paying $19.99 for dial-up and others were paying $12.95 for DSL. So some were actually more to go slower (50X slower!) and tie up their phone line!
I’m no fan of the cable company so I always say go with DSL from the phone company, no matter what deal you think you’re getting on the “bundle illusion”. After taxes and fees has anyone made out on any “bundle”?
