Bandwidth!

Bandwidth!  Bandwidth bandwidth bandwidth.  Now that I’m back to mental acuity, as it were, I need to look into how long I’m locked into my DSL and DirecTV contracts.  DSL is unacceptable.

I switched to DirecTV because my local cable company doesn’t carry Setanta.  But at this rate I’d rather have the bandwidth and download (read: steal) the matches.  I max out at 90kBps.  70 is more normal.  That’s all my copper can handle, living in what the phone company considers the boondocks (read: in the middle of a city).

    Actually, looks like Setanta has a broadband service available now, even, to do it legally.  For Windoze and Mac.  Not Linux.  Their loss.  Revenue loss.
