Okay Here is what I could find out. All of these pricing are based on no HBO, no DVR, only cable TV in the living room and the inclusion of security for our computers.

[edited out all the boring numbers and bundles of the top two cable companies]

What do you think? I am going to call both places today and see what their installation/start up fees are.

Wow - I have good timing: I haven't checked this e-mail in over a week and I look on it within an hour of you sending this!

To be honest, my vote would be for Cable Option 1 deal.  Cable Option 2 seems very fluid with their pricing, and Option 1 has a two-year contract, meaning they won't play merry-hob with our payments. (We have Option 2 at the apartment I'm in now and they stay pretty steady) On the other hand, I wouldn't do anything without a quote on installation (it would really depend on how the place is wired already and all that jazz.)  If it turns out that Option 2 is the better option because it's already being used at the place, I'd vote for the cheaper one.

Merry-hob ? Really?
That sounds like the name of a Treasure Troll. That is your new nick name. Merry-hob Pilcro.
Danni, your's is Cap-a-pie Gubbins

I think I have a modem, is that the thing that you get wireless with?? the infamous blackbox?
Cheap is good. I never considered the installation price, so if that makes things easier with Option 2...

ps a little upset that the lady hasn't gotten back to us about moving in on the 31st. I mean, even if the answer is no, she could have just said that.

Love,

Danni's nickname sounds like a sorority.
