Verizon DSL vs Comcast Cable

   After living in the boonies with a dialup connection after
   all these years, I finally
   can get a higher speed Internet connection.

   So what's the latest scuttlebutt?  Should I get Verizon DSL
   for $35/month, 320 kbps,
   or Comcast cable, $42/month, 4 mbps down/384 kbps up?

   Is one more Linux friendly than the other, or do the both
   hide behind Microsoft?

Try Speakeasy DSL while you're at it.  A few dollars more, but really
good service, and definitely Linux-friendly.
