Shyaa right. dsl and cable are both forms of broadband. Something you don't know about dsl: the closer you are to the office its controlled, the faster service. Plus it goes through your phone. Cable is faster and always on.

DSL, ISDN, Cable, T-1, and T-3 lines are collectively called "Broadband". DSL IS broadband. Anything is faster than dial-up. I do not know who the best provider is, though.

Cable has much better speeds, but I like DSL better. More convinent if you're trying to move stuff around the house.
I'd advice against AT&T/Yahoo though. They recently ameneded their EULA to say that whatever information you post through their wires are their property. Even stuff like bank account information and whatnot, and reserve the right to provide that info to third parties or law enforcement at will. No subpoena really necessary.
