    My first ISP was with Earthlink.. dial-up.. slow as mud.. then came .. sbcglobal.net.. DSL
    sure was a lot better.. then an upgrade.. faster again.. then a new upgrade that was
    supposed to be better..but one had to be no less than 1 mile from the office.. I tried it ..
    my pages just sat there spinning around.. so I dropped back to the the 1st upgrade to dsl... my cable company doesn't offer internet..

    Does you head still fit through the front door?
    Have a great day and enjoy the reaps of your quality work.
    Yeah, lots of empty space up there

    I've always had BB since I've had a PC. I used Webtv on dialup (still have it :)) for many years though. A Guy

    I had my driving lesson earlier and I have just finished installing my drivers in Windows XP. So later on to-day I can play Rally Trophy.

    Before broadband I had a 25k/sec dial up...
    I don't remember life before broadband.

    It wasn't pretty...
    No it was not. I was not able to get ADSL until 2003 and cable is still not available in that rural area. Other than dialup, the only option was satellite and that was way too expensive.

    Exactly. We did have TV via satellite and the rain storms would wash out the signal.

    Oops. To the mods and admin and all others on this forum. I apologize. Today I got into a political discussion and was sore and sour. I meant no harm.

    No harm, no foul, but this is the reason that we dont allow these discussions here... it always ends up in an argument and feelings end up getting hurt...

    I agree and I usually don't get into any political discussions. I think i started that one with my post yesterday. I just didn't think about what I was saying...

    I know the forum rules and abide by them... and then I slipped.
    I won't do that again....
