| Cable at home, T1 here at work. It's the good life.
Bad part is that my wife's computer is the new one at home and the damn thing flies. My PIII 450 with 386MB of ram and Windows 98 is starting to chug now a little bit. Too bad, it's been a really GREAT computer for the last 6 or 7 years now!

| Well I work for the phone company of Verizon inside the main CO of the tri valley in socal, so you can only imagine how fast it is. Sad thing is, they dont have DSL in my area yet. The equipment is installed, but no line cards to make them work  AND they are only gonna be able to provide service for 740 cust. out of roughly 2,000. I am first in line though. To make you even more jealous, cuz I'm an employee.....I get 1/2 off too | |
