Shucks, well my dialup provider also has dsl service, and I know the dialup service does allow linux, so I'd imagine linux would be supported for dsl too. My college has a mixture of windows networking experts and linux experts, in fact one of the netowrking professors is a linux junkie and has made sure that its included in the entire course, which I think is absolutely great since linux is more a standard on network servers than windows. Only task for me to fit in with that class will be to convince them to install a speakup enhanced distro of redhat on a computer for me instead of whatever version of redhat they use.
