Re: that sucks
It is not so bad in the sense that our "slow" cable is MORE than adequate for my needs but the inability to add a server means the business has to be on ADSL which is MUCH slower than cable and has a traffic limit of 1GB per month before extra charges apply. 1GB might sound like plenty to some but when you have 8 people on it and customers accessing a web page, it goes fast.

That sounds just plain old nasty... to be at the mercy of the feds to allow you to get faster internet... I got spoiled at work with having three T1 lines available (shared with about 250-300 users/systems). That is why I went with DSL as soon as I could. That and I got tired of having to dial in every time.
Now that I have had a chance to relax for a few (bad day at work), it makes some sense to convert the less populated states to fiber optics faster. Eventually everyone in the US will have that in available to them, it's just a matter of time.
