	I can get ISDN/IDSL and possibly 192k SDSL, but that is all. And
yes, it is too expensive. They want $100 a month, and I can not really
afford that right now. Especially since this is my parents house, my term
of my stay is rather indeterminate at the moment, and my parents are happy
with their 56k modem. :(
	Now, if I can get fast internet access and cable service combined
(and the internet access supports Linux), then I can get my parents to
jump for it. Netrack appears promising, just will have to wait and see.
