I use nLite to slipstream, it's the best. Lets you create a totally unatteneded install. It allows you to remove components prior to install and ad drivers to the install.

Well after my call to Comcast last night I came home to a 3 meg surprise. Yes my speed test at dslreports showed 3123 down. I am guessing they do not want to loose customers to WOW and increased mine to keep me. Like they said everyone should be at 3 meg within 60 days. Proof a phone call never hurts.
