Re: OT: QWest experiences???

I don't think one currently exists... Why don't we create one?
I'll do my ISP:
(2Alpha)
http://www.2alpha.com
WiFi OK ("It's your bandwidth, do what you want" TOS)
Service available up to 7M/7M, slightly more expensive than Speakeasy 
(~$15-$20 more for 1.5/1). Used to be metered, now unlimited.
Unlimited static IPs, 5 email accounts, free DNS hosting for 1 domain, 
Usenet access
Linux/open source friendly (clueful and very dedicated tech support)
Business-oriented
Servers are at the Westin
