Finally!

Hurrah! I'm finally getting cable high speed internet either tomorrow or the next day! I don't think anyone here knows what it's like to work on a T1 all day and then go home and use dial-up! It is torture! I've put a poll here to get the statistics on who has what internet service wise.

Cable for me!  I've been using it now for about a year and can't imagine life with 56K again.

I know what it's like (I've got your pre-cable situation) :P.  I downloaded a takeoff video at home in over 10 minutes... it took 7 seconds at work ::).  

PS.  I assumed the poll was for our home connection.

If wishes were horses, I would be riding Shadowfax (see Lord of the Rings books)! ;) ;D

I have had DSL for about three years now, and I don't know if I could work the net without it!
