Hi folks. I need to get DSL internet, and would like your 
recommendations. ISUNET is first on my call list, but are there any 
others I should be considering? Any anecdotes? I'll be connecting from 
West Des Moines.

I looked around QWEST's web site and they have quite a list of ISPs. 
What I find really strange is that with each one, the system 
requirements states Linux, Unix and Mac OS 8.6 are compatible but not 
OSX? I've used plenty of DSL PPPoE type setups before with OS X (since 
the public beta I think, although it wasn't "built-in" then). Do their 
modems do something weird?

The exact text is:

Windows 98, ME, 2000, XP or NT 4.0 or higher

Linux or Unix
Mac OS 8.6 or higher but not OSX

warm wishes,
Darcy
