Martha Martha Martha!

 

Unreal - Martha Stewart has been fined $30,000 and faces jail time - BUT (there's always a but)....

 

She to spend 5 months confined - TO HER HOME!

 

God!  That's almost like telling a kid who has a lot of video games, computers and a TV in his room that's he's grounded, and CAN'T COME OUT!  That's not a punishment, it's a vacation.

It came at a price

Yeah I switched to DSL. It's cheaper that's for sure, the interent speed is great, but (there's always a but) - My newsgroups download is capped at 16kB a sec. About 3x as fast as dial up.

There's a plus side and a minus side though - the plus is that the newsgroup retention through Oxford Networks is amazing. All the posts are there, and It's fantastic. The minus is I can't download that fast. But I figure if I do download, It'll take me longer.

Oh well.

Have you made the switch?

I'm on DSL now. I'm paying 80 a month for a phone line and DSL, whereas I was payin 120 a month for cable TV and a Cable Modem.

Hmmm save 40 bucks AND get a phone line? I'm there.
