    If you anything like me you'll never go back to dialup!

    I don't think *anyone* could possibly go back to dialup after having cable, it's just crazy to think of anyone who would want to do that.

    I remeber back before getting cable... I would go to my school's T1 connection and then come home to sharing the one phone line in the house... it was so trippy the first time I got a call while I was online...

    ADSL isn't that bad if it's 512/3mb.
