They probably do ... but I live in Detroit. Comcast@home provides the
ONLY broadband service to my neighborhood. Ameritech COULD bring DSL
but have dragged their feet for at least 3 years now. They did offer
me idsl for $129 / month. No server, of course. But who would want to
run a server on idsl if there was an alternative?
In a way, I wish I had your deal. Comcast doesn't offer commercial
cable modem service. Their comcast@work arrangement is for a T1 or
better line and starts at too much money and goes way up. I would
willingly pay $80 a month for my current connectivity AND the right
to run a simple http server. It just isn't available.
