Unhappy Earthlink Satellite, just for PC's, not Linux...

Those of us using Linux on our typewriters can't get Earthlink Satellite.

10) Is EarthLink Satellite service available for Mac or Linux computers?
Sorry, EarthLink Satellite service is currently only available for PC users.

direcway, with the new dw6000 works just dandy with linux/mac boxes. one cable between your nic and the dw6000, set it for DHCP and your off and running. earthlink is still offering the non-compatable 4000's. go directly to direcway.com if you don't want to wait for earthlink to catch up with the 21th century

PC = Any kind of x86 - compatible computer that runs at home.
You mean Windows...
