What can I say? I live in a low-speed telecommunications ghetto.
There was no internet back when I bought this place, and it never
occured to me that being >> 18,000 ft from the telco CO was going
to be a problem. And I've heard so many horror stories about the
cable operation, I'm not even curious enough to see whether they
offer data service on my street. Ironically, I work at one of the
most high-tech companies on the planet.
