Phil tries broadband

Last night I received a call from my friend, Phil Petty, to let me know that he had gotten Bellsouth's DSL service (IFITL, pronounced "eye-fiddle"). He was having some trouble getting to his email server using Eudora. After giving him the proper POP3 settings, he was able to get the mail that had been awaiting him on the server. It's always fun seeing a friend discover a new toy. Of course, it also means that there'll be those late-night calls when he encounters problems, but that goes with the territory. For all of you who receive email from Phil prepare yourself for receiving large files that he doesn't remember take a long time to download. That is probably one of the inevitable downsides of a friend getting a fast connection.
