I live in El Cerrito, and I have DSL through PacBell. Have you called them
to see if you can get DSL?
If you want to setup servers, I'd go with their Enhanced plan, with 5 IPs.
With that plan they allowed me to take control over the reverse DNS for
the IP addresses, so that I could control their mapping.

If that doesn't work, there's always dialup... Idiom is a good ISP that will
give you as many IP addresses as you need, and let you setup reverse lookups
for them.

What kind of servers? Intel, or something like an Alpha?
