Oh my God! This can't be true. They are scum if this is true.

I'll pull out the interface card in my Windows ME machine and
install it in my Linux box to see if Comcast is scum.

As a side note: my Linux machine has the networking attached
to the mother board. So I guess the additional card should
be referenced 'eth1'. If this is incorrect, please respond.
