I use my home access for an occasional e-mail check and minimal browsing.
Since I have T-1 access at my office and spend way too much time at my
office anyway I don't really feel like sitting in front to a computer much
at home.  Especially not for browsing the Internet.

Plus - they can't be that bad since many users on this list use them for DSL
access.  Well - if I didn't have a flex modem then my selection of ISPs with
good pricing would be better.
