A subject line is for continuity of threads, not a > place to put your own personal opinions by changing the > subject (line). thanatoid may be a troll. it's an ancient tactic to say one thing, backpedal, agree with some people, argue with others, etc. this thread may be akin to counting the angels on the head of a pin. no ISP or phone company will agree to bond 1,000 phone lines. they'd insist on fiber, T1, whatever for 56 mbps. you can get high speed lines run to homes. the guy who owns nyx.net has one. even multilink 2 * 56k would be silly. you can get satellite internet for that price. most dialup ISPs have timeouts, as low as 4 hours for PeoplePC. ironically AOL, considered the worst ISP by many, has no timeout locally.
