After lots of headaches and incompetence on M1X's part, they finally got me a cable modem and a tech to actually turn the stuff on. Interesting points : 1. They say RCN's cable modems are the same speed up and down stream 2. The tech didn't flinch when I showed him my laptop booted into Linux and said I wanted to install on this. Basically, he needed to tell his Boss a version of Windows, but never asked me to boot into it. Of course, I still don't have cable tv. He also only split the line, not install a new one which the customer service waste-of-space I spoke to said that was absolutely necessary. Oh well, RCN will probably be here before my second month at the new place is up ... -Seth -- "It is by will alone I set my mind in motion" - Subcription/unsubscription/info requests: send e-mail with "subscribe", "unsubscribe", or "info" on the first line of the message body to discuss-request at blu.org (Subject line is ignored).
