[gui-talk] DSL versus Cable

[Antonio M. Guimaraes]

Not sure that cable is that much more.

There are speed options, so I end up paying $35 or $40 for my internet 
service with Cox.

There is FIOS from Verizon, ant it's I think much faster than anything else 
out there.

For a wapping $140 a month you can have 50 mbps download, 20 mbps upload 
from verizon.
