I have budgeting issues. I may have no choice.

Got a question about technology? Ask it here. Discussion of hardware, software, TiVos, multi-region DVDs, Windows, Macs, LINUX, hand-helds, iPods, anything tech related. Better than any helpdesk!
Have you scouted the new location for open wifi?
Not yet. The neighbors are a bank and a funeral parlor.
quester, can you keep the Internet and give up cable?
I'm not even considering cable. I'm just trying to keep the minimum until I can figure out what I can really afford. This is all kind of happening fast and isn't really very well planned.
I'm moving out of my sister's house and leaving the free satellite and dsl behind.
Is free wi-fi at McD's or Barnes & Noble, or some coffee shop type of thing not an option?
How much would dial-up be? I have the cheapest speed AT&T connection ($20) which is fine for my purposes, except long videos (if I got rid of cable, I might bump the speed up a notch for that reason). But it's fine for email, posting here, and downloading iTunes, which is most of what I do on the Interwebs.
quester, I think DSL might actually be as cheap as dialup. And I suspect if you are getting new service you can probably get a deal for 6-12 months.
A nice guide on digital video cables and connectors:
What’s the Difference Between HDMI and DVI? Which is Better?
Thanks, le nubian. Free wi-fi would be okay if I wasn't looking for a job. I need to get my email every day in case there is something. All of my resumes have my gmail address on them.
Plus, what would I do without you guys.
