Or GruntBand.

I just gor Broadband, so expect even quicker wittier ripostes and lightning fast, um, flames.

I'm guessing he checked out the webcam of Tammi, that girl who's always sending me email.

I had cable when i was in Beta testing for my area, had it for a good while. Now alas I dont even have an internet Connection at home. Oh woe is me.
At work of course we got something along the lines of a t1 connection.

Ehhh - welcome to the infomational highway .... you are only a couple of years behind
Naa - grats on loosing the annoying dial-up connection.
But be wary - the faster the internetconnection, the bigger the usage. (it is almost like a law or something
)

You know, when I first read the title of this thread I thought it was about Grunt dressing in drag.

Broadband is nice..... very nice. Too nice. it will consume you and make you addicted to the web. More than you might be.

I'm on ADSL, pipex. Its sweet. After self install and the associated cussing and thrashing, I didn't feel like like doing much.
I checked out Gamebanshee of course - boy do the threads load quickly.

Good stuff Mr S (on ISP's generally) but that appears to be mostly as an ISP, with lesser problems for ADSL.
I'm happy and its cheap!
