Now where did that belly-button lint disappear to?
Today's Best CPUs Compared... To a Pentium 4 354
Dr. Damage writes "How do current $74 CPUs compare to the $133 ones? To exclusive $1K Extreme Editions? Interesting questions, but what if you took a five-year-old Pentium 4 at 3.8GHz and pitted it against today's CPUs in a slew of games and other applications? The results are eye-opening." Note that this voluminous comparison is presented over 18 pages with no single-page view in sight.

Well, I'm a realist. I can stay with Vonage, buy large chunks of their stock, walk around town with a big orange Vonage box strapped to my chest, but all of those things are going to do very little besides make me poorer and at some point have no phone service.
Remember the key point - VoiceWing service is CHEAPER than Vonage.
It works fine for voice, which is all I really care about. I receive less than one fax a year, and I have a eFax number for that.
Fight the good fight all you want. Verizon will continue to squash smaller companies forever - I saw it in the early DSL days, we're seeing it in VoIP now, and I'm sure we'll see it in broadband, TV, etc. in the future.
