ISP Information:
This term usually refers to the amount of printed pages a printer can output over a minute's time. The time is based on some average amount of ink or toner coverage on a page. If you are printing complex graphics on inkjet color printers, expect your printer to function more slowly than its PPM rating, as it has to make up to four passes over each area of a page instead of a single pass for black ink only.
ISP Glossary:
PPM - "L Mehl" wrote in message news:... Can readers share their experience with AT&T or SBC? These are the only 2 providers I know of that offer DSL in Menlo Park, where I live.Check Earthlink, they provide ADSL service via Covad,at least down in Silicon Valley.My advice is to choose Sonic.net or Earthlink.The big advantage of Sonic.net is that you get 4 static IPaddresses included in the price.The advantage of Earthlink is that the equipment is includedand the monthly cost is lower. Earthlink also has an advantagedue to the availability of nationwide and worldwide dial-upaccess, something I find useful when travelling. You can geta 5% discount on Earthlink if you are a USAA member.I would not go with SBC as the customer service is verypoor, and you don't want DSL on the same bill as yourregular phone service (as I found out when I had PacBellDSL).
