We actually has a similar thing here... I had been trying to get DSL put into the budget for months, and accounting kept saying no. Despite all the added benifits it would bring us, they didn't want the $250 a month price tag that I was proposing (this was early DSL, before you could get it dirt cheap, I was one of the first in my area to get it). So I was smart. I pulled out the last few months phone bills to show the cost we were paying to have our "unlimited" dialup line connected all day. It was connected to the network, and we were running a mail server, so the only time it hung up was after 11pm, and then it went to connecting once an hour to update the mail server, until 8am when it came back up full time again. Showing them three months of $450 line charges got my $250 a month DSL put onto the budget with no further complaints. -chris <http://www.mythtech.net>
