    On Comcast here. It's a bundle deal, so they don't split it out on the bill, but it's probably about $50 for 20 down and 3 up, cable. Bill is about $185 for Inet, VOIP telephone (free LD with all the bells & whistles) and HDTV with one DVR.

    I'm not paying jack. I tapped into my next door neighbor's lines.
    All the world’s a stage, but obviously the play is unrehearsed and everybody is ad-libbing his lines. Maybe that’s why it’s hard to tell if we’re living in a tragedy or a farce.

    I have a TV/internet bundle for $89 a month from Charter. 16/2 megabits internet, and expanded basic cable with HD.

    I was paying $165 a month for DirecTV and the same level of cable internet. Bundling has worked out well, and the internet service has always been very good. The TV service hasn't been too bad either.

    Just snared an upgrade special for $40/mo.
    "Standard with Power Boost - 7 Mbit/s/512 kbit/s (bursts: 10 Mbit/s/512 kbit/s)"
    Still a rip, but I hope I can play poker now without getting disconnected from the game.

    No, I mean I ran a length of RG-59 over the fence...

    (Just kidding, of course. I pay way too much for CATV/Internet.)

    sure beats .74 down & .12 up
    Was changed instantly via phone call.

    16m = Turbo speed. I hope they didn't screw up. I'm only supposed to have a max of 10m down.
