I actually have to throw in a thumbs up for DSL.
First, you have to go with what's available in your area. Many areas do not have both available.
The thing to keep in mind with a cable modem is that you're sharing the bandwidth with others... so if you live in a fairly well populated area it could be slower.
I have verizon DSL and have had absolutely NO problem with it. I think in the 4 months that i've had it, I've only not had a connection for about an hour and a half. That's much more reliable than my network on campus ever was.
Sometimes you're just stuck with whatever's available though. Definately do your homework! Also many companies will give you the DSL modem for free (mine did) so that shouldn't always be a concern.
