True. We've been in SLC since June and use Comcast for cable only, and it's been problem-free. I bought the higher-speed package because of my wife's consulting business, which uses lots of video. We did't buy the Comcast modem -- we have an Arris SURFboard SB6183. Much better, and yes, it does pay for itself. That was on the recommendation of my tech industry son. Comcast customer service is frustrating because it is so inefficient -- long phone call, repetitious questions, but eventually they get it right. Fortunately, we haven't had to deal with customer service since the time we got everything set up (but setting up was frustrating). We don't use Comcast for TV -- we stream everything. That's working out well too.

“True, we [lawyers] build no bridges. We raise no towers. We construct no engines. We paint no pictures - unless as amateurs for our own principal amusement. There is little of all that we do which the eye of man can see. But we smooth out difficulties; we relieve stress; we correct mistakes; we take up other men's burdens and by our efforts we make possible the peaceful life of men in a peaceful state.”
--John W. Davis, founder of Davis Polk & Wardwell
