No it isnt, you pathological liar. What I ACTUALLY said was

    The main problem with the DSL title is that strictly
    speaking ISDN is DSL too and it isnt actually used
    that way except by mindless pedants.

Fraid so, its a DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE, fuckwit.

Irrelevant to whether its a DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE too.

Even someone as stupid as you should have noticed that it aint DSPL

Irrelevant to the SUBSCRIBER LINE, fuckwit.

Never ever said anything remotely resembling anything like that.

Pathetic, really. THEY DONT HAVE A DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE, fuckwit.

No they dont.

DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE doesnt. The D is there for a reason, fuckwit.

> ISDN doesn't do this.

It still has a DIGITAL SUBSCRIBER LINE, fuckwit.

In fact its digital, like that or lump it child.

Nope. You are, as always.
