| Re: It would be nice. I havent gotten any freebies from my ISP either (Charter) but its all crap, so who cares? I dont need the virus and spyware stuff *because* I have a Mac, and the Music Match junk they offer is worthless.
As another user says, having a Mac prevents them from screwing up my computer the way they have screwed up some people's PCs. Oh, and when I call in, I dont tell them I have a Mac, because I either get the "we dont support Macs" or my computer is blamed for their network issues, automatically. | |

| Re: It would be nice. You must've called on a bad day (not that this sort of thing can be planned, of course). Usually the mac people are the ones sitting around waiting for calls. -- Think outside the fox...Seamonkey | |

| said by McLovin :Tech: That's why, DSL technology is incompatible with macintosh systems. Get a PC. Me: No! Given that new Macs can now run Windows, I'm surprised that such a response hasn't become commonplace for Mac users who complain about things not working for them. -- Tancredo 2008! | |
