What's so bad about PacBell? (Score 1)

I dunno why so many posters seem to be complaining about shoddy internet support from PacBell. Admittedly, it did take three weeks from the time I originally requested DSL installation until the outside contractor -- Prime Services Group -- actually arrived to do it. Oh, and that I had to wait on hold for three hours that same afternoon for PacBell to get the router to recognize my IP. However, it's hard to argue with the end result: $40/month and 180K/sec consistently. Anyone considering DSL from PacBell in the SF area shouldn't hesitate: it's well worth it.
