If you guys really want to cut down on cost of your monthly cable bill, why not switch your phone line to VOIP?
It's saving me $30 per month without Shaw. You get a free phone line and a number. I paid $75.. $50 for configuration file for my ATA, and $25 to transfer my existing number, my line is free for life.
Check it out.

turbomelon, your build is waaay too much of an overkill just for a basic home router. I was thinking of using a really old 1.6GHz CPU for it. lol
