haha, wow i havent heard a bill clinton joke in 8 years lol
Do you even remember 8 yrs ago Steve? Weren't you in diapers back then?

As for internet, avoid Rogers out there.. even if it's available thru Inukshuk... it's unreliable enough in Toronto, never mind say out there..

Did I mention I work for Rogers Cable? :P
haha, i swear we're the same age al.



Ted rogers is going to be very dissapointed with you. I actually have never had a problem with my rogers hi-speed. Hands down i prefer it over dsl too.

but i do work for Rogers Telecom (formerly sprint canada) :ph34r:
i used rogers for 5 years and now that i'm on sympatico highspeed DSL i don't think i'd ever go back .. specially with the stupid download limits that rogers has impossed.

DSL has Faster Upload speeds and the download is almost exactly the same, and its $6 cheaper a month .. other than the tech support issues bell has i'm very happy with my DSL
i'm too lazy to configure dsl though... rogers plug and play ability makes me happy

no dam with pppoe settings in the routers and such
my always-on DSL connection was basically plug and play .. but i didn't setup the mail account as i hear that sympatico email can be quite a pain to use

If you're using XP, no futzing with anything, the one time that "Plug & Pray" actually works without the requisite virgin sacrifice.

There are only two reasons I'm on rogers instead of bell.

1. Employee Discount
2. 5 MB/sec transfers..

More the employee discount.. I was getting Bell @ 4 mb/s for $44.95... I'm paying considerably less for Rogers.
damn, i dont get my emp discount till sometime after october....

looks like i'll have to stick with my sprint discounts for now.
fawking sprint thats who we got the phone line throuhg so the wife can talk to her mom long distance for free and whamo no talking till sept 21 all your fault Steveo
aw jeeze... bell isnt giving any quicker turn around times...
