Ah.  Although it wouldn't be the first time TW did something shady
and tried to keep it from the subscribers...

I was laughing at the TW guys when they first started rolling out
their "business" service.  They wanted like $150/month for 128Kbit
business service.  With NO SERVICE GUARANTEES.  So, the businesses
could pay $150/month for the honor of getting dialup speeds.  (Yes,
I realize that dialup speeds are half that, but trust me, at the
time TW was WAY behind on their infrastructure).
