Ok? Who cares? Have you contributed anything to the thread? Nope. Please stop with your 8 word useless posts, thank you.
well I care, and yes I gave information that yahoo is a ripoff, and I have an opinion 🙂
p.s. just because you a mod. doesnt mean you can be rude.

SBC being a ‘ripoff’ is an opinion, and not real ‘information’, and your opinion added nothing to the thread, nor was it really relevant. Just because you have an opinion doesn’t mean you can waste database space.
I’m certified to be rude, and in some cases it’s deserved, especially when I’ve warned you several times already.

Notice what I have:
Free Anti-Virus
SBC Yahoo! DSL Browser
2 GB of E-mail space
760 MB storage space
No Cable TVNotice ys8er2323 that if you want your Comcast Internet for 42$ a month you have to have Comcast Cable. That mean’s in the end your paying about 90$-100$ a month for both combined. If you don’t have Comcast Cable their internet is 58$ a month. I don’t have Cable but still get my DSL for 40$ a month and its about the equivelent speed of yours. And If I get SBC Dish it will only be 24$ more, so where I would get both for 64$ you would be paying about $90+.

well I do have they’re tv service, and comcast is constantly upgrading my speed, before my speed was 2 mgs now its 4 +, And I only have basic cable so it isnt that much more expsensive, also comcast offers a program from support .com to auto fix your browser. Also
unlimited photo storage
and access to a one click fix site.
250 mb is storage is fine, knowing that I dont even sign up for many things on my email.
yahoo just gives a bunch of extra stuff to make up for the lack of download speed.August 29, 2004 at 10:44 pm #39101Someguy03
MemberI wouldn’t call it a lack of download speed. 1.5 mbps is more than enough for me. I just want a higher upload speed.
The only thing that is bad is the support. I was talking to SBC Yahoo! DSL support in a new chat feature they have, and I was showing DJhyperbyte how stupid they were being. He refused to believe it wasn’t a bot.

Comcast’s support sucks too…
Oh, and one reason I want DSL: static IP address… Comcast doesn’t offer a way for me to have one, which is pretty bad…I’m sure Verizon does…same with SBC…

MemberYea comcast has that except its REAL people, and they most of the time help you out.

MemberNo No mine was real people, they just acted stupid.
But one thing that is cool, is that the 2Wire modem you get with SBC Yahoo! DSL is also a cheap (signal strength is medium) Wireless-B router.
I also like the homepage:

Yeah, what a great way to end the “ISP pissing contest” that Dave so accurately described. 🙂
BTW, ys8er, you might want to check that link, it prevents people from voting, since it links to the results of the poll.
