Having access to the USENET news is very valuable to me and
I'm happy that it is available here at the Lab. What if I
were to move to a small company? What are the available
low cost options? (By low cost I mean something reasonable
for a small company, say less than $4000.) Modems seem
awfully slow to move that much data and you need some
cooperating site. An academic site might shy away from a
profit-making firm. Are there commercial services? Are there
high speed satellite connections for the cost of a TV dish?
What other ways can you get high-speed connections?

I'm not interested in nitty-gritty details (yet) but just
generally what solutions people have found for this problem.
