I used to have cable, and I used to have DSL. Both were about equal. I now have dial-up (don't flame yet). It was a very hard withdraw. I have dial-up because I pay $10 a month on top of my local phone bill of $18 a month local calls only (central Florida). I use my cell phone for long distance and have a good bit of minutes from the old AT&T so Cingular cannot change that (and my cell is deductable on my 1099). Cable tv is included in my rent.

Between the dial-up, cell phone, home phone I pay on average $80 per month. I switched to dial-up to save expenses, and it does suit my needs currently. High speed is certainly MUCH better, the only thing I am missing now is the downloading of songs and pictures take a while to download.

If you are budgeting, I would try to stick to dial-up, and when you get a roommate, go halves on the high speed.

Cfrost, are you going to a flight school? Can you call ahead and have them check the bulletin board for someone who is currently looking for a roommate? You may not have to commit to a lease, perhaps month-to-month, and while you are there initially you can check out other living options.
 
Actually where I worked my first year as a CFI, the planes were old but the owner was the best mechanic I've ever seen, those planes were in really good shape. Just the paintjob looked familiar.

If you go with cable modem service you can still get basic channels over the cable lines, the filters they put in place for the internet allow basic tv access,but of course they wont tell you that..
