    Broadband suggestions

    Okay, comcast is and always has been the devil. I need a new broadband provider in the Seattle area. Give me some companies to look up and call before I go to comcast and strangle some people for being a-holes.

    I have SBC Yahoo and it's ok....since I've never had a different ISP except for AOL *shutters*, SBC makes me happy.

        Comcast sux, Verizon's worse.

        If you go DSL I would recommend a separate ISP. Blarg.net is a great ISP but they have to use the dsl lines from the monopoly.

          Anything else? Is that what you use?

            I went to comcast. Blarg was great for when I did have problems with verizon. but I still had to go through verizon for the DSL line and I learned to hate them, hate them with a passion. But other than that, verizon sucked.

                Try to avoid DSL. It gave me nothing but problems.
                Or better yet, why don't you kill yourself. No, really, die. Drop dead, don't leave a note, in fact burn your house while your little ego is stuck in a bench vice so that you'll also incenerate yourslef and everything you own with it. Because that's all you're worth. You're not even wirh thte time it'll take for the house to burn down, so just kill yourself. You're a waste of space. You are nothing, you always will be nothing. Don't leave a note, you're not worth the ink. - Tyger

                  well, at least i'm not the only person who hates comcast. my internet used to go out randomly, despite the fact that we still had cable tv. you can't even check your mail on their website, =\

                            I didn't, I'm firewalled, it's just that my service kept cutting out randomly when the virus first came out. I think that the actual company was hit and something happened.
