Another Money Saving Opportunity

So, I was perusing the SBC/Yahoo/AT&T website the other day, for no particular reason at all. There I saw that they were offering their “Elite Package” DSL (3.0 to 6.0 Mbps Down, 384 to 608 Kbps Up) for $27.99 a month (with a 1 year commitment).

Dang! I’m paying $36.99 for their “Pro Package” (1.5 to 3.0 Mbps Down, 384 to 512 Kbps Up). I generally connect at just under 3Mbps now and overall I’m pleased with their service, but more speed is always good. More speed for less money is even better. To illustrate my penchant for speed; recently I’d even been contemplating getting Cable internet to augment the DSL and combining both lines through a Linux box set up as a load balancer, additional cost be damned!

Anyway, as per usual, I digress; I went ahead and signed up to upgrade to the “Elite Package”, so within 3 business days I should be seeing a big jump in my internet speed, and next month my bill will be ~$10 less!

Life is good.
