Just curious? Does this center more on crappy internet access/cost?
There are some miserable ISP options available in an amazingly large
footprint given the day and age. WiMAX has helped in US but not much.
I have always chosen to live in the boonies when possible and have
utilized all of them at some point. When I'm in town on a nice CATV
net connection that drops a 2.5g ISO on my drive in minutes, I don't
care what's in the package so long as relevant to the system.
Yes!
Let us not forget that those of us with broadband Internet connections
are privileged. I suspect that many, if not most, people on this
planet have no access to this luxury.
If your internet connection is so bad, you could as well buy a debian CD

Shame on FOSS developers that either have forgotten, or are too
callous to care about, the discipline taught by operating a computer
connected to the outside world via a plain old telephone system (POTS)
modem.
Shame on those who believe that there very own requirements have to be
respected in first place, and who didn't accept a helping hand to get
things work like they want, even if it isn't the default.
