Same here.

I do have indoor plumbing, cable, and phone service, though. The cable 
company (Adelphia) keeps promising cable modems Real Soon Now, but it 
hasn't happened yet.

There's lots of DSL in the region, but I live too far from a phone switch.

So, I share a 56K connection (at least I can usually get 48-50K out of it) 
between my three desktops and my Powerbook, all using an Airport Base 
Station for a router to the outside world.

I download software updates at work. :-)
