That could very well have been. Normally, it runs very close to the

I notice a definite decrease in speed. Overall, though. I prefer
paying the 9 bucks a month for dial-up opposed to the 40 plus bucks
for cable.

You forgot to add in the cost of a second phone line for the dial-up
(I keep my LAN on line 24/7), which used to be $26 per month. That
put the cable only ten bucks ahead of the dial-up and the extra
speed sure was worth that.
