So, my school is moving soon, to interbay, and with the move, we want to upgrade from the craptacular DSL service we have now. What's available in Seattle? Centurylink and Comcast obviously, but who else should I contact?
Thanks!

This seems sort of off topic

Slightly OT but...
Perhaps the title should've been prefixed with "OT:" as a warning, but anyhow...
Unless Interbay is somehow outside the Comcast monopoly and has access to Verizon's FIOS, Comcast is your best bet. I've got a home and business line with them and get consistently good speeds at all times of day. I have a group that do volunteer work for that's on CenturyLink DSL and it's crap, thought it's cheaper per month. Comcast runs about $70/mo for business -- less if you can bundle a phone package or something -- plus $200 hookup which is waived if you sign a 2-year contract.
(Note: all that info is from a bit over a year ago when I went shopping around to hook up an office in Ballard).
sorry for offending you Gaelan.
Mikeker, thanks for understanding how getting a good internet connection relates to using drupal.
Yes, my research shows that only comcast and centurylink serve interbay.
I'm a bit confused, it seems that in hi tech seattle, you'd think there'd be some other way for businesses to connect to the internet than the cable tv company or dsl. That's a bit baffling.
