Cox High Speed Internet does cost a bit more, and you get a lot of
performance for the bucks:
Your phone line remains free. If you have a second phone line, you
may cancel it after you get the cable modem and save that cost. If
you currently have a pay ISP (MSN, AOL, EXIS...) you may cancel that
too and save that cost. Together, the price of a second phone line
and an ISP are about the same as the Cox High Speed Internet price
(with cable) so you should just about break even.
You get:
3Mbps-download speed, 256Kbps-upload speed
Always on
7 email addresses
Up to 70 MB of Web space
24x7 Tech Support
No long term contracts
30 day money back guarantee
The service costs $39.95 w/cable. You can rent the modem
($10/month), or buy one from many sources.
I do not want to turn this into a sale pitch, I know, too late, I'm
sorry and I will stop here. I am just very passionate about the
service I provide (yes, I provide). I work for Cox and I run the
Master Telecommunication Center, the old term was `headend'. If
anyone has any questions, please feel free to send them my way.

PS: Our scope (my wife Barb and I) is due tomorrow. We both do
solemnly swear and promise that we will not open the box and let the
clouds out until after Friday night :)
See you tomorrow at TCC.
