I don't know about "costly" (that is a relative term). At scale ADSL networks [obviously] have proven to be cost-effective. For whom? Currently ADSL companies advertise Internet access in my area slightly more expensive than Ethenet providers for the same download speed (and much slower upload speed).
Ok, but that doesn't say anything about the tech's cost-effectiveness. You may have non-technical issues and costs involved. In many many places ADSL connectivity is common and reasonably priced. It is important not to interpret ones own experiences as the 'general case' (assuming there is anything like a 'general case').
But imagine the situation of say 7-8 years ago. Internet was very expensive then.
Where you are. In ~2001 in many places there was reasonable Internet, including the early versions of ADSL. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org For additional commands, e-mail: opensuse+help@opensuse.org
