DSL works great on 17" Powerbooks.

You'll love it.

Get the DSL provider to give you an ethernet modem instead of a USB modem. USB DSL modems are horrible.
If this post is in the Lounge forum, it is likely to be my own opinion, and not representative of the position of MacNN.com.

Was this in reference to the first or second post? Had the same reaction to the first post. Second one was a rather funny response. Have to admit, the original question is up there with, "Does your laptop have the whole internet on it?" You bet!

I wish they could get to fit the huge 17" transmission window into the standard DSL MTU ...
