   	last week the apartment complex where i live in p.g. county sent a letter

      will be via comcast.  that's reason enough for me to move.

   Didn't FCC just find such exclusivity arrangements illegal?

That may be for cable tv service only, not internet connectivity. And
if there is no other cable company capable of serving the building...
