A quickie

I'll pontificate more later...let's just say that Comcast's incompetence in the well-solved problem of bandwidth management makes me more than willing to avoid them as an ISP for any reason, even if it means some extra work and pain on my part.

This shit? Sorry, but if I contract for a line that allows n Mbps down and m Mbps up, then I expect I get that. If I can't use that at MY convenience, then I expect to only be charged for the hours of the day I'm allowed to use my service at the stated rate.

Comcast's inability to do things in a sensible manner should not be their customer's problems.
