Read the SLA (Service Level Agreement) on each.  DSL usually doesn't have 
one.  You are buying an oversold connection which might give you the speed 
you are buying.  A full T1 should be 1.5Mbps full duplex.

Again, it depends on the company.  From a Tier 1 provider with a good SLA 
it is a good deal.  From an over-subscribed CLEC, probably not.
