Guest grannen Posted February 21, 2001 Posted February 21, 2001 We are a mixture of guys connected here, but what type of connections do you have? And how fast is it? What speed do you have and are the animated signatures slowing down your download? I have a Cable with 512k/s download and the animated signatures doesn't show any delay in my reading the posts. I'm curious to know what is the most common one and your comments. ------------------ and Grannen
Natty Posted February 21, 2001 Posted February 21, 2001 I've got cable, had that for about 7months now, don't know on the download speed, usually it varies and depends on what I'm downloading, also depends on where I'm downloading from ------------------
TunaMurray1587246291 Posted February 21, 2001 Posted February 21, 2001 I have cable but am also on a house network. The connection varries from that mostly but cable itself seems to be unstable. Depending hom many people are using it and how the cable company is doing the connection will be in a very wide range. Simpy put we are somewhere between a sinking rock and a shooting star. <embed width="384" height="128" src="http://www.murraysweb.net/flash/tmurray.swf"> [This message has been edited by TunaMurray (edited February 20, 2001).]

Well, the actual speed varies of course, but I when I asked for your speed I ment the speed your IP has stated. ------------------ and Grannen [This message has been edited by Grannen (edited February 20, 2001).]

MagnusB Posted February 22, 2001 Posted February 22, 2001 True. People often say (at least in films) guys, also to girls. And anyway, it`s just a thing you say, right?
