bouncyIn other news, apparently AT&T as a merger condition agreed to make $10/month DSL available for two and a half years starting last Saturday (2007.06.16) ... but were planning to sit on the information -- have it available, but never advertise it, since they didn't really want people subscribing for $10/month when they could charge them more! Hah! This isn't relevant to me, because it's 768kbps dynamic IP service, and I need static IP service ... plus our direct-to-the-CO connection was only capable of 384kbps, and if we're going through the pain of over a week of DSL downtime to get switched to a connection-via-a-"Remote-Terminal" (aka "RT" -- really, a repeater, close to / at the demarc), we're going to get more than 768kbps, gosh darnit! Still, I'm amused that the service they didn't want advertised is getting lots of publicity. Hehehe.
Speaking of DSL, we FINALLY have reconnection scheduled. Thursday! Yay!!! As of last night, I thought we'd be lucky if it happened by Friday. So, 2 days from now we should be back on-line at up to 6Mbps at home. Awesome! :) I might explode if they screw it up. Let's hope they don't.
