I notice that Linux isn't listed under Verizon's DSL system requirements on 
their website. Yet many Linux users do have Verizon's DSL. How does Verizon 
handle this? Do they just dump everything at your doorstep and leave it for 
you to set up? Do they deny your application because you're on Linux thereby 
forcing you to access them indirectly at providers such as Flex?
