I'd like to be able to surf and torrent at the same time, something I can't do with my current crap DSL. If I see something I want to download, I don't want to end my surfing session then and there or wait until I go to bed to start up the queue.
Streaming video would be cool too, but I can read and annotate a transcript before the video will play all the way through.
Conversely, I frequently download Firefox and distribute the same install file over 6 different computers that I manage here at home.
An actual account of user habits is definitely needed to get an accurate picture of browser usage.
Damn smart Utah kids...the only thing they teach our high schoolers is advanced Texas Hold'em.
Funny you say that. The impression several of my AP teachers had this past year was that our senior class was among the dumbest overall that they had ever seen.
I had a very similar setup going on for a while, but I lost it over a year ago. 6 years and 2 gigs of emails lost to a faulty power supply. Scouring turned up nothing usable and I didn't have backups of my emails.
Those were smoke rockets fired to provide a background to measure the progression of the shock wave, once it was past the initial fireball. During the first fractions of a second, the shock wave and the fireball had the same perimeter. After, the shock wave continued outward and was harder to track.
As the shock wave continued out, it would cause a density change in the air, leading to a distortion in the images of the smoke trails.
Those smoke trails were only present in test firings, not at Hiroshima or Nagasaki.
As my modem is incompatible with my Linux distro.
As it is, I have several solutions:
1. PURCHASE a Linux driver from Linuxant
2. Purchase a new modem (I'm stuck on dial-up regardless)
3. Use Windows for pretty much everything, as almost all of my computer usage is internet-related
This bites. I think I'm going with #2. Purchasing a driver for Linux, to me, goes against what Open Source is all about. I'm not going to support prostituting any software if I can help it. Microsoft does enough of that without my help.

And all this on a 'broadband' connection.
So yes, size^H^H^H^H speed does matter.

It made me think it maybe may have been a an article on quantum mechanics of quantum...

A deity capable of creating an entire universe is obviously capable of deceiving you.
So why haven't midgets taken over the world, eh?
Hurry and get your IP listed now!
Good gravy...

I felt like I lost a part of my past...

She put an emory board in my stocking. And nail clippers. Does she not realize I'm male? I'm not exactly metrosexual, either...
