:) - that's pretty funny man! I can relate - the other night I was up until 3:30 dloading, and my girlfriend finally gets up because she realizes that I'm not in bed and came and pulled me out of it... It's addicting!!!! I use Cable - I pay $40 USD monthly - the bandwidth varies, but for my neighborhood, it flies... Cable is a 'shared resource' - so if you have 100 people using cable modems in your neighborhood, you will surf slower than if you had 2. But still, it's very fast - you need to find out the avg. up and down link speeds from your local region. DSL - dedicated line - more expensive, but always there for you to use - you can buy this in different chunks of bandwidth. the others - I don't know about. hasta - Sonic Wallpaper http://mp3.com/sonicwallpaper http://mp3.com/live http://sonicwallpaper.com np: nothing at all - silence is so nice sometimes --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: idm-unsubscribe@hyperreal.org For additional commands, e-mail: idm-help@hyperreal.org
