Not trying to steal a thread but it seems to have moved towards who has the best connection any way,I live out in the boonies(Mail gets here by carrier pigeon,LOL) And the only option here was dialup,after dealing with it for years I finally droped it,at the time it was costing me 60 a month for the phone and 30 for internet.And it was so slow posting was a pain in the rear and that was without loading pictures.Then a company called cleartalk came out with unlimited broadband for 60 dollars down first two months service included then 30 bucks a month,and from what I can tell the speeds are real close to my brothers dsl.Its not everywere yet but there is a few states as far out as Cali that have it Lookup clear talk and see if you can get it were your at.
BTW: I love the way the new update has the box at the bottom of the thread were you can post a message from there,Wish all sites had that.
