YANCC (Yet another nice Cringely column)
Robert Cringely has another neat column on broadband exploits. He's singing the praises of a $99 router device to get redundant dsl and cable modem service. I had wondered about that too, doing it directly in a linux router/gateway box, but then I don't run a biz from home, but only a bandwidth consuming hobby or two.

The whole column is very refreshing for the dismissive tone of his SBC comments. Cringely is a much smarter geek that I'll ever be, and he overcame SBC in neat ways. I'll probably remain scarred from the long troubles we had getting service after we came to Illinois ...
