Well, if you're using Qwest.net now (or MSN if they've switched), Qwest (or
MSN) won't charge you to switch to a different ISP, unless, of course,
you've signed some sort of contract with them stating that you'd use their
service for given period of time. In which case you may be breaking that
contract and be subject to whatever penalties the contract stated you would
be subject to if you were to break it.

If no such contract exists, you could easily switch ISPs, but most ISPs
charge some sort of setup fee for initiating an account with them (in my
experience, it's been in the $20-$40 range), so you may have to pay
_something_ to switch to a new ISP.
