Nope. I've had Comcast for over a year. First 6 months were only $19.95  :laugh:

Sounds like Comcast Colorado is a lot cheaper for some reason.  :happy:

In Maryland Comcast costs about $49.99 per month w/ leased modem. I switched from Comcast to DSL ($29.99 p/m) and there are slight issues in our area w/ DSL... intermittent DNS problems... and weird fluctuations in download and upload speeds sometimes. :~) - I considered going back to Comcast but they are not worth the extra money. Plus Verizon DSL w/ MSN gives you 250MB of storage as opposed to the 10MB you get w/ Comcast.

Yea I use optimum online and its probably THE best internet Ive ever had. Its supposedly 10mbit up and 1mbit down. Very excellent speeds both up and down I cant complain. Only thing bad is that my cable is capped right now because I uploaded over 20 GB in 2 weeks :rofl:

But other than that its great. Only $34.95 a month I believe, Also have Opt. Voice and IO Dig cable. Works out to be great :happy:

im in atlanta and i pay around $46 with the cable modem lease. I had it for around 2 years and I really havent had any problems. Only about 4 days out of the 2 years, the internet was down. 2 of those days was when they were changing from ATT to comcast. At first, i had 3.5mbit but as time went by, its 3mbit. It's okay, not too much difference

The only thing is, i pay $5 for modem per month, so i've paid more then $120 for the modem. The should stop charging me for this, i could get a modem for $120.

Hey I'm comparing this to my sucky slow-ass expensive DSL. Those are my only two choices - I really like it - it's fast and cheap.

DSL? Slow? Expensive?

Try $45/mo for 3000 Kbps downstream, 384 Kbps upstream ^_^

Unlucky me, I let go VZ DSL and got Comcast cable due to the speeds. And just recently VZ upgraded to 3.0mbps, and still only 29.95$.......Im paying 55.99$ right now for comcast at the same speeds. Also at times it lags, ALOT, like goes from 400kbps downloads to 5kbps. Ive only had cable for a month, but Im not very satisfied, so I give them 6/10...........Keep trying comcast.

    • Microsoft confirms Windows 11 26H2 to finally get one of the most requested features

      If you don't care to read what I said, then you prove my point. Maybe written media is beyond your attention span. Titles are not summaries my friend.

      Nobody asked... in fact, I said "I don't care about political leanings"

      TLDR. Here is a far better title (just a basic example): Windows 11 26H2 to allow disabling Web search results

      Restore will get my vote, only if to see if things are any different, doubt it though but Labour and Conservatives too out of touch and same thing over and over and over…, Lib Dem who?

      There is nothing wrong with this title. You have completely missed the plot when it comes to "clickbait." The issue was never that a title tries to entice you to click, that is how titles have worked for over 100 years. The issue is when the title subverts expectations, getting you to click expecting something that isn't there. The classic clickbait example is "Boyfriend caught cheating, what happens next will shock you," then what happened next is the girlfriend was upset...which is probably the least shocking outcome imaginable. If sounds like what you want is for the titles to be a collection of 10-word summaries that you can skim, get the just of the story, and only click if you want more details. That is not, never has been, and never will be what titles are. You can go all the way back to print newspapers during the great depression and see the same thing. The newspaper was locked in a vending machine, all you can see is the headline, you choose to put in 5¢ to buy the paper and read the rest if you want. Those headlines were written in a way to sell the paper, not just to provide a summery. Here are two actual headlines from that time, "Wall Street Lays an Egg," or "Stocks Hit Bottom?" Maybe you'd say something like "it was wrong then and it's still wrong now." Okay, fine opinion to have, but it isn't like Neowin is doing something unjurnalistic, they are just following the age-old standards for written media.
