Today, I was doing some research into Qwest DSL and looked at their "Other
ISPs" link. Limelight Networks shows up in the list. I figured it would
be interesting to see what Nathan's current company is charging for DSL
service, so I clicked the link and saw pretty much nothing but info about
T1s and whatnot.

Are they really offering DSL service through Qwest? If so, why are they
keeping it a secret on their web page? And if not, why the hell does
Qwest have them listed as an alternative ISP on their DSL page?

It looks like the $150 T1 deal is over with, though. I saw an ad on their
page offering T1s from as low as $429, including local loop.

I believe that's only for Nathan's employees... or at least it was at one
time.

Cause they are qwest. Limelight is not is the retail (residential) ISP biz.
Or at least I don't believe they are.

It was $129 - Nathan mentioned wanting to do that at the last 'fest' but I'd
guess it actually costs a bit more than that just to provide the service...
