Backwards and Forwards

Friday, October 4, 2002

Wow. We've been using Bellsouth's DSL for over three years now! I was just throwing out old receipts (yes, I have three-year-old receipts filed away), and discovered the installation records. It's been a wonderful three years of service: consistent high speeds, only a few hours total downtime in those three years, and my IP address has changed maybe 4 times. 5Rocks.com has been running on it almost the whole time, serving up millions of hits over those three years, and dishing out gigabytes of info - all for only $49.95 a month.
