Re: Another Alternative

Even if it was expensive to him. Does it matter to you? So poorer people shouldn't be allowed to have a HSI option even if it is inferior in speeds?

That makes sense. In your opinion we should keep dialcrap alive, huh?

If you can read, I never said block BPL rollout. But it isn't going to move quickly, so satellite is an OPTION if he wants higher speeds now.

Or »www.rapidsatellite.com/SearchRes···oryID=43
DIRECWAY Special Offer - ONLY $59.99 Down and $99/month for 15 months, then $59/mo. after that. Includes Standard Professional Installation
Both deals are cheaper for internet access if you also get DirecTV too.

Re: Another Alternative

You also fail to mention the upload/download caps for satellite users. Just because the fcc might say sattelite is broadband does not make it so.

1 edit		 Satelite is expensive and BPL is a great idea. Just because he is stuck on dial-up doesn't give you the right to assume he is finacially unstable.

 Oh, drop the class warfare crap, it was old in the 80's.

Hey, I'd love to have a fiber optic pipe the diameter of an elephant's trunk running into my basement. Alas, I can't afford it. I remember the days when "dial up" was 300 bps into a Wildcat! Apple II BBS.
