Dial-up used to be great before every website in the world started using java and complex graphics without proper compression. I had to go from a T1 with more bandwidth than anyone else on the switch(hehe...it pays to work for Network Services) to a dial-up when I moved. I thought I was going to die for a month or so. But DSL came through... Good luck on getting back up to speed. ;)

<< Dude, I am going to be on a 28.8 (actually less) for three months!

All I can say is WOMEN suck! My woman left me as well and I have to move back home for a couple months.

Ha, 3 months on 28.8K, thats nothing. Try 6 months on 24K and counting.... :|

Dial up aint too bad. I use it as my primary connection, have a t3 remotely connected pc that i use to download stuff, go there, burn it onto a cd, and copy into my computer. Sure its a hassle, but it sure beats paying for dsl, though with impending graduation, my dial up account is going to be closed shortly. Looks like verizon is gettting another customer.
