One thing to keep in mind: I have Comcast cable, and if it goes down, I'm without Internet. With many third-party ISP's, such as Vis(?) you may be able to have backup dial-in access. It won't help for any sites you host, but having access to e-mail even when your broadband is down, or when travelling, can be very nice. _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota http://www.mn-linux.org tclug-list at mn-linux.org https://mailman.real-time.com/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list
