As a customer, I hate those. Perhaps is it just that with Comcast Residential it is the easiest way to get any bad support. Always felt like they were handling 20 other people concurrently.<br>
<br>
OTOH, with IRC and my own client, support is fantastic. I don't have to enable java/javascript on 30 6th-party websites just to get help.<br>
