Enjoy. Make sure to spend the next few days downloading useless large files, just because you can.

I will be posting a thread identical to this one in one month because that is when I will be getting DSL. :)

I will be downloading many, many, many large files. Then ofcourse, I must brag to all my friends still on dial-up, what speed I am downloading at! :)

I don't have the $40 per month for DSL right now. But it is nice dude. I wish I was your roommate. :)

Yes. My favorite was downloading on Napster. On dial up, about 15 minutes a song. On DSL, just around 3 minutes depending on the other side.

Now I am just waiting for my 12x plextor burner to come in the next couple of days, and I'll be all set! :)

You bunch of broadband bastards, I'm still stuck with dialup and I ordered dsl in july. I recieved a email saying they couldn't activate me.
Then I keep recieving ads from local cable company and the've got a $19.95 a month deal going for your first 6 months. Unfornately they haven't finished my area. This just sucks big time. I wish they would save all there millions on advertising and hook people up for god sakes !!!!!!

When you go from dial up, you have to brag. I think it is an unwritten rule or something ;)
