Re: FreeBSD challenged by Internet

I doubt there is any reasonably priced ISP that will help in
troubleshooting a problem that's not reproducible on Windows.

$19.95 a month for DSL (ISP charges) is not reasonably priced?
WTF?

Dunno about your neck of the woods, but last time I checked around
here Verizon was charging something like $5 or $10 a month more for
just the DSL line to connect to a third-party ISP than for the whole
package using their own ISP. Makes it difficult for independents to
compete, at least on price :(
