I've been a Mindspring/Earthlink customer for almost two years.  Less than a 
month after I switch to RoadRunner, Earthlink starts to offer cable access.  
*sigh*

Note that, at least in the Wake Forest area, road runner is closer to 
$60/month if you don't also subscribe to at least basic cable service.  For 
those of us who don't watch TV, that's would be a substantial savings if 
Earthlink is truly just $42/month.
