[sllug-members]: UTOPIA... on Utah Now?

[Steve]

What about testimonials?

Could we gather up a bunch of testimonials, real world examples of of
real people, detailing what having Utopia has meant for us and/or
enabled in our lives and produce a pamphlet, a website or even a video
of it.  We could release it under creative commons and let marketing
execs at pro-utopia companies such as ISP's have a crack at it?  Maybe
place these videos in critical places such as welcome packages from
realtors and chambers of commerce?

I remember seeing an iProvo video a year or two back that I found so
highly persuasive that I nearly moved to Provo until I found out that
I could get basically the same thing in Orem under Utopia.

In fact Utopia service is my #1 reason for remaining in Orem, even
though I've considered moving elsewhere.
My business couldn't survive on DSL or even Cable for that matter.  I
need uptime, and I need to push and pull bytes fast.
Part of what I do involves backing up 10s of GigaBytes of remote data
every day, for my clients, you just can't do that with Cable or DSL.

Only Utopia gives me the bandwidth and uptime I need at a price I can afford.

Sincerely,
Steve
