I've got my DSL through Communitech.net -- $59.95 month and static IP, but
they don't offer new service.  I've never had any real problems . . . I've
only had maybe 3 outages in 3 years (knock on wood).   $65/month sounds
pretty good also though.  I like my bandwidth because it seems to always be
pretty plentiful . . . small (DSL) customer base = no hassles.  ;-)
