<VV>High speed communications

[James Davis]

I might mention it takes a very, very bad storm to loose lock with 
the new dishes and LNB's.  You probably would want to have your 
computer on in that kind of storm.  Hughes Net has a comparable 
program (they build the DirecTV satellites).  DirectV now offers a 
high speed internet/DirecTV package.  It is available in most areas.
