[ale] OT: ISP

Both comcast rez and u-verse rez have a 250gb cap, keep than in mind.
Normal at&t dsl only has a 150gb cap iirc, you can get comcast biz for 64 /
mo no caps and its priced off a contract that price is for 12/2 and comes
with other goodies and you might be able to haggle with them. What are your
needs and I can point you in a better direction.
