we have a dedicated cable line, i don't think there is anyone sharing it
with us. i do know that the @home business package is totally separate from
the regular @home line that people normally get into their homes. if we
wanted to host 100 2page sites with a maximum of 5 images per site, strictly
informational(no database requirements), how much bandwidth would we be able
to get away with? would a dedicated business cable line suffice?
