Re: Duh.. said by nunya:When I see the speeds people are still putting up with from DSL, it's laughable compared to cable.
When I see the bill for such amazing speeds, I gag. Comcast, the local MSO, wants not just my firstborn son, but my left nut as well, for that kind of speed. But they admittedly do have a crumb to toss my way: Xfinity Economy. DSL speed for DSL price.

| Agree completely. The Economy tier is killer. I don't know what all this 'speed' is about. Who needs it? Whats the most a home user will do;
watch some streaming video
play games
read email
That is all less than 1mbps. WTH do I need 50mb? I've been trying to get some cheap DSL for years but their service to my house is crap and they really don't care to figure out why. (new house)
