Actually it's pretty darn easy if you already get DSL service from
Qwest. A friend of mine did the switch from Qwest to Real-time a few
months ago without any problems. My only questions is, why haven't you
guys switched over to Real-time already? We all know they have great
support, you get a block of IPs, and they even give the TCLUG deals from
time-to-time. Plus Bob never sleeps so he's always there to answer your
questions.

Rumor has it that they're Linux friendly too. ;-)
