Unless you're doing hosting, SDSL is probably a waste of your money.

Earthlink DSL works great with Linux and offers a very competitive 
price.  Many local ISPs like Coho and Internet Arena also offer DSL, 
usually through Verizon.  Some also offer ISDN if you're sure that's what 
you want.

I wouldn't recommend working with Qwest unless it's strictly 
necessary.  I'd like to tell you about all the great experiences I've had 
setting up services with Qwest, but I don't think I've had one yet.
