    Sorry, Spring Break~

    I am temporarily stuck witha 56K dial up until this Sunday, so I may get in a post of two a day.

    I realize how "good" I have it with T3...and how I post so much...with this POS...I am so ANNOYED waiting, I get bored and sign off...thus I posted so slow. Heh...cool.

    Anyway...seems like a lot has happened in the past few days...but uh...I'll catch up next week...same with News.

    Peace out all!

    ~TSA

    Hey, your Spring Break is the same as mine!

    I can relate to the crappy modem. On holidays when we go to my great-grandmother's house, I have to use her computer. Her lines are bad, so the highest speed I ever connect is about the speed of a bad 33.6 modem, but usually I connect at 28.8. I used to have a 56k, but now I'm SO glad for my DSL. To our low-bandwidth friends: I tip my hat to you, you have great patience!

    In my day we had slow connections... and we LIKED it!!

    Out here we had a crappy 28k connection (from living too far away from town) and one phone line... until this January! Then we got DirecWay Satellite service... it's 768k always on (not the fastest, but a hell of a lot better. So I guess what I'm saying is I feel for you guys.

    Yeah, but thats if you've never gotten used to high speed internet access. I would make a thousand posts in a month on a 56k connection(which went at a lesser rate anyway because of antiquated phone lines). After I got used to Cable Modem connection, I went on my cousin's PC, that had DSL, but with a bad hub, so the connection consantly broke every few minutes. I couldn't stand to post once because the connection would break after typing the post up and I would fail to get the reply posted, because of a broken connection. After that I gave up on trying to post, so for the two weeks of being at my cousin's, I stopped browsing the forums daily and posting altogether.

    OH No you don't Dark

    I live with a T3, Fiber, Wireless hybrid netwrk, that gets over 70 megs a second on its prime every day at school, and I'm not spoiled when I come home to the 56k..............

    NO-ONE gets any sympathy from me for having to use a 56k.........................

    LOL u guys act like a 56k is like 2 dixie cups and some string.
    the only things i don't like about a 56k is it lags up my starcraft game and i get booted offline alot but other than that its not all that bad.

    I have been on a cable modem before and it wasn't as great as everyone says it is but when your DLing a map on starcraft or a program or something then its alot better than a 56k.
    But I like what I got.
