And I know plenty of companies using a 128K isdn line for mail,
web surfing, *and* running their company's web server.

What makes you people think that you *have* to have a T1 or DSL
to get things done?  Do you not remember people having 56k lines
either?  

There was life before broadband, and it still exists.  Keep in
mind that broadband connections are *not* that widespread - most
of us are just lucky to live somewhere that has them.
