Actually I'm pretty sure Cable costs more, therefore not saving money, which is why for some people it's not as easy as 'just getting' Cable or DSL...

Cable/DSL is almost always cheaper than having to pay for another phone line(which I assume he has more than 1) and internet service.

Cable is ALMOST cheaper than dial up around here, because the call that would be made if we used dial-up is a different middle 3 numbers, therefore making the call charge more than a local call(but not as much as a long distance call) Get what im saying? We really only end up paying 10-15 dollars more with cable.

I was paying 20 bucks a month (100 hours) for dial up before i went cable.
Now I pay 10 bucks more for 2mb down/1.5 mb up.

Those prices are also in canadian. So basically I pay 21 bucks american a month for pretty good broadband.

What does it matter anyways? F-Zero GX came out today.. I'm sure he'll be fine without the Internet for a while.
