We had it installed for my girlfriend's father because he couldn't get anything else and we were spending a lot of time there a while back. No cell service and no real high speed internet. But it's 3 miles away from the ski slopes. So I guess there's a trade off.

That said, HughesNet is bearable if there's absolutely no other option. I will be able to go away this weekend for 4 days and not feel totally disconnected, so it does what it does. You are severely limited to how much you can up and download each day and it sucks if you go over. Don't expect to get much real work done. Email, IM, web browsing, etc.
