20 Mbit down, for $40/month, with no other services? Or is the Fios
bandwidth really much much lower than that? I'm actually moving in a month
from a non-fios location to somewhere that fios is available. With no cable
television and no phone but my cell phone, I figured the switch from
Roadrunner Light to Fios was a no-brainer.

Sucks about the "no servers" rule, but webhosting can easily be gotten cheap
or free elsewhere. Downloading a gigabyte file in less than 10 minutes
sounds great. I can't even do that at work.
