Welcome to the 21st Century

[VanC]

I've always been one of those people that's usually about 10 years or so behind the latest technology, and some of the stuff coming out nowadays I don't imagine I'll ever have, simply because I don't need it. Anyway, after struggling with dial-up all these years, we're finally hooked up with high speed internet. Came home from work tonight and there it was. Wife took a couple of days off and had it hooked up as a surprise anniversary present. As the young folks say....sweeeeeeet!!

Welcome :welcome:
Don't understand how you followed this forum or the world with dialup :compute:

I have yet to make the leap.. it just started to be available at our place, so I cruise the forums at the library

Higher speed made the internet actually useful to me. Wish it was faster.

Glad to hear it Van, I've got satellite, don't know that it qualifies as "high speed", but better than what I had.

It does tend to make a big difference, doesn't it? Mine isn't stellar, but it sure beats the hell out of 26K on dial-up.

I had high speed broadband, a few months back I had fiber optic infinity installed that is superfast broadband 40mb. Turn on computer and it is instant, I love it.
