There are a lot of different speeds.  Mine is 256/64, which is the
crappiest you can get.  Most places will sell you either that, 384/384,
728/128, or 728/728, but you can get (the technology allows) all the way
up to somewhere around 8mbit, I think.  Cable maxes at like 27mbit, so
DSL's definitely slower, but it's a dedicated link, so you're gauranteed
a good connection.
