Ah well in my case we have both phone and cable tv...dsl here doesn't work
because we're too far from the datacenter to get a good speedy connection
(dsl gets slower as you get farther away from the ISPs datacenter) but since
cable internet has no distance restriction we get great internet speeds with
cable hence why I recommended cable over dsl :-)...of course others here
will probably have different experiences and thus this recommendation won't
apply to everyone but for those who may be a bit distanced from the nearest
city like we are then cable internet is definetly the way to go :-)
