Regarding ISPs and running one's own server: I have DSL from Qwest, but they only provide the line. Getnet is my ISP. Their terms of service do not prohibit residential customers from operating servers on their own machines. I have been doing so for over two years. Also Getnet gives their DSL customers a static IP address. I get 1.5 Mbps down and 900 Kbps up. Hope this helps. Jim -- In 08 vote for a crook you can trust.
