Adam, I have no direct experience with their DSL (although I sure tried to 
get it for almost 3 years!) but I can certify that their dial-up works with 
Linux so I would imagine the DSL does, also. Hey ... standard protocols are 
agnostic, right? No custom software and no itty-bitty installation baby steps 
from tech support ... but who cares? Until of course, they start using 
TCP/MS.
