Another weekend, another chance at a learning opportunity missed. I was hoping to download and install the latest CTP of SQL Server 2005 but once again my "broadband" provider is happily charging me $44/month for high speed service that isn't what any reasonable human would call high speed.
If I was in charge of the FCC I would nail a company like this for false advertising. Luckily the lot that I'm building my house on has Time Warner, I've had roadrunner before, it was great, and I can't wait to return to it. The provider I have has a damn monopoly on the apartment complex I'm in, no cable, no dsl, nada. So much for free markets eh?
