Depending on which ISP you choose, you can get support for Linux. We (DCANet) support Linux on a best-effort basis for Bell Atlantic residential ADSL customers. You can see the pricing for Bell ADSL for all the various ISPs that are participating in the Bell ADSL InfoSpeed program at http://www.bellatlantic.com/infospeed/. -Andrew _______________________________________________ Plug maillist - Plug@lists.nothinbut.net http://lists.nothinbut.net/mail/listinfo/plug
