Trying to get NTL has cost us 3 futile days off work, around 20 hours waiting on the phone to speak to someone who was of no help, extra cost in trying to reconnect to alternative phone and internet providers, and all the mental stress of going through this entire saga.

NTL can be easily installed in a matter of minutes on just about any platform, including PCs, and 32- and 64-bit workstations running Unix or Windows 95/NT.
NTL achieves this portability by avoiding esoteric C++ features, and by avoiding assembly code; it should therefore remain usable for years to come with little or no maintenance, even as processors and operating systems continue to change and evolve.
