Bunkum!
Here are a few things to consider:
DSL can be every bit as fast as Cable.
DSL has less overhead, and does not share with TV and FM signals.
Cable subscribers *DO* share the bandwidth.
When the power goes out, so does your cable. With DSL, if you have a
notebook or a PDA, you can still surf.
I have DSL, 5Mbps, and my connection is faster than any of my neighbors
with the
supposedly faster Time Warner cable connection, and I pay less.
Cable Internet is not available for the price of a 768/128 DSL
connection.
Making blanket statement about DSL or Cable is misleading, as the
performance of either depends upon many variables.
Do not discount DSL just because a cable user says it is better.
