Yep.  Ditto that.

Speedfactory has been one of the best ISP's I've ever had.

A friend of mne and I have always said "Gimme some IP's, some bandwidth, and
leave me the hell alone" and Speedfactory does just that.  I can do whatever
I wish, as long as I'm not breaking the law, and that's just right for me.

For the record, I love Speedfactory.  I *have* had some problems (see the
previous post about the mysterious dropped connection on Fridays thing, but
it's since stopped happening).
