[SunRescue] dsl advice

[nick at snowman.net]

I got some nice offers from SpeakEasy.net, and they offer static ip's for
decent prices.  Their policy on servers is also much better than many
others than I've seen (they explicitly do not disallow them).  I seriously
considered them, but decided I was willing to pay uunet for routed
SDSL.  (YMMV, I never actually got their service)
