We have Direct TV. We also could get a AT&T land line, but we use our cell phones. AT&T doesn't offer internet in our area, so I don't want their durned phone line. They have since purchased Direct TV and the price went up. We have AT&T of cell phones. We use Hughes Net for internet and it is ok. When you live "out" there are no winners. You just get the best you can get and deal with it.

Yep. All the time you hear about competition keeping prices down. Um, not in a LOT of places because not only is there no list of cable companies to choose from, in most places there isn't even the one that exists in some places. I guess we are lucky, we have 15M DSL on the phone line. Could get satellite but it isn't any better and we have to have a landline anyway, cell signal pretty much skips over our house. We can sometimes get text messages ... if the phone hasn't drained the battery looking for signal.

We have decent DSL service over our land line here. We had to have a landline because of needing internet for our security system when we were only here a few days a month. Our TV comes via a 50' antenna and Netflix so happy with that.

Our TV comes from ... oh wait, we have no TV service.

I still have an old TV with one of the "boxes" the gov gave everyone many years back......yep, working. Don't watch TV enough to justify expense of any service. Do love having my computer work and not cut in and out, half load, etc. Sure makes my work reports zip along!

Credit on the bill?? Right!! Not holding my breath. When I discussed new equipment in Spring they wanted install fees, contracts and all that, over $200. This update had none of it, same monthly cost. I can live with that.

The installer did mention he hadn't seen a monitor like mine in years. Told him it was like me -- old and working great!
