    Remember how you were able to tell whether it was going to successfully connect or not just from the sound? Man those were the days

    I would sell my left nut to have UPC in my town. Motherfúckers need to expand!
    They would destroy the competition if they went nationwide.

    Is it sad that I understood almost everything Comic Book Guy said?

    Dunno, my sis set up the internet and phone line with them couple of years ago. Its defo not fiber optic though... Or maybe it is. I really have little clue. We just pay them the monthly bill and as we're pretty happy with the connection, we haven't bothered changing it...

    Jaysus, I'd love to have a ping that low. Trying to play xbox live with a 250 millisecond ping is quite fricken frustrating!

    Too bad I'm really **** at FPS games (i think I have slow reflexes or something) so that low ping does me little good... I'm not bad at racing games though! Still not having a steering wheel puts me at a disadvantage at that too... :(

    C- seems pretty average. Then this time of the night it will always be slower.


    I remember the dial-up days - listening to the sound brought back memories, broadband was a magical concept available in some futuristic country.
