I wonder if Comcast messes with their business accounts the same way they do with home accounts....
Well, that article had them messing with Notes, so it's probable.
eta: Responding to Comcast.
Zoe: Captain will come up with a plan. Kaylee: That's good. Right? Zoe: Possibly you're not recalling some of his previous plans.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

The current Earthlink add running on Buzz Out Loud is for something called "freestanding DSL" that you don't need a phone line for, but I think the coverage areas are very limited.

Leopard features, and a release date of the 26th (I skimmed, but didn't find mention of that here).
It will be available [...] Friday, October 26th, at 6pm in Apple Stores and at authorized resellers. Leopard may be the most ambitious MacOS update since the switch to OS X, with new features such as Time Machine, Spaces and Quick Look, plus updated iChat and Mail and a snazzy new Dock with Stacks. The upgrade will cost $129 for a single-user license, and $199 for five-user "family pack." Meanwhile, if you've bought a Mac anytime on or after October 1st, you'll get an upgrade for the cost of shipping

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
I just ordered a 250GB HD, so I can swap drives when I install Leopard.
I'm more excited about finally being able to fit all my music on my laptop again....

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.
You'll need a second disk if you want to take advantage of Time Machine.

"This bar smells like kerosene and stripper tears."
"I scared the tar out of some people, at least," she says. "It had never occurred to me to take a hammer to a phone company before, but I was just so upset. . . . After I hit the keyboard, I turned to this blonde who had been there the previous Friday, the one who told me to wait for the manager, and I said, ' Now do I have your attention?' "
This gets up my nose. I'm sure she was angry and frustrated that she didn't have phone service, but it had nothing to do with the blonde. In fact, I'll bet when the manager decided to leave, she probably reminded him/her that there was someone waiting. What was she supposed to do short of physically making the manager see these people.
The girl wasn't not paying attention to you, lady, there's just nothing she can do.

The Washington Post article is very weird in tone.
I'd love to hear what Comcast isn't saying.

Too lazy to google....
Re: Time Machine and second drive:
If you've got an Apple Airport Extreme base station, you can even perform this backup wirelessly to an external hard drive... meaning that it would be a simple (practically one-click set-up) task to back up all of your local computers to one external hard drive over your network.
What does Apple Airport Extreme base station have that a conventional wireless router/hub does not? 'Cuz doing Time Machine wirelessly would be pretty cool....
