I may be missing something but you already have what you want through
your ISP, Comcast. It's called Personal Web Pages. Once you register a
domain name you can redirect traffic to that address to your Comcast page.

mm... good point... I vaguely wondered about this when I
registered a personal website... I have webspace coming out of my
ears via my broadband isp, via compliant friends who never need
their free allotment, etc. And yet I coughed up for hosting just
for it with a company (different to my isp). True, not much, 40
miserable downunder buckeroos. I use the free webspace elsewhere
to supplement the miserable 10MB that comes for the 40 to make
for respectable elbow room but... it seems that this scurrilous
cheapskate cadging strategy of mine is not quite as low as I can
get eh? Might have to look into it. What do you do, ask the
registrar of the domain to point it to where I want? Perhaps the
downside - I think as I type, sorry - is the domain url changes
in the browser url field of the website user? mm... might be
worth the 40 after all to avoid this...
