Kuuki Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 gwad i would hate to go back to 56k Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lynk Former Posted April 11, 2003 Share Posted April 11, 2003 lol it's not that bad being on a 56k. the only time I get pissed off is when i'm talking to rach (nevermind) and I get disconnected. x.x the rest I don't mind, i'm a patient guy.

Jared Posted April 11, 2003 Author Share Posted April 11, 2003 yes, me and red learned to be patient. I sometimes will still have to use a 56k in the near future. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogue Renegade Posted April 14, 2003 Share Posted April 14, 2003 Yes, I use 56K intentionally as an aid in character formation . . . BWAAAAAHAAAAAA! Really I just don't know whether I would put cable on my main computer at the office (next door to my home) or at the house. Plus, the money sure is easy to spend elsewhere. I'll probably kick the dial-up habit in the next year. Oh well! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuuki Posted April 15, 2003 Share Posted April 15, 2003 How about this senario: 56k: $29.95 (or 28k for like $9.95 with netzero or something (netzero isnt really worth it)) for service Plus the phone bill you racked up while online Cable or DSL (from 250k down and 150k up or 250k up and 500k down (not really cus of traffic most of the time)): $29.95 for service, and you dont ahve to pay the extra about for the phone bills Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well! have you ever thought about a router??? you can have the cable on as many computers as connections to the router. ^_^ how close is the office?

Rogue Renegade Posted April 16, 2003 Share Posted April 16, 2003 Is the router just like a junction box or cable splitter? The office is about 100 yards or so from my house, but there's a paved parking lot on part of it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
