Who has dial up?
I kinda know what you mean. I have sattilite internet. It loads vids okay and pics but when it comes to downloading a file, its complete shit.
It will go like 8 to 10 kb/s and my internet with flick on and off which will cancel my download.

Who has dial up?
I was just trying to download some pic's on here. And yes we are the unfortunate one's with the dial up. It said I had to contact the administrator because my edit had taken more than ten mins. But i guess i will trade the DSL. For clean mountain living, a medical card. and just living the good life with the Wife and the Bears and the cyotes.:stoned:

Who has dial up?
I used to have dial-up. We switched to cable broadband though about 3 or 4 years ago, so i know what dial-up is like. It sucks. But hey, its better than no internet at all right?

Who has dial up?
I remeber dial up. Man it sucked. It would take so long to load a page, and youtube was out of the question. That would take like a half hour to load a 2 minute video.
Me and my Opa were talking about this the other day. He remebers in like 1990, when the internet was first around, that to send an e-mail to the US, would cost a bloody fortune just because of the slow dial up connection and the long distance fees you had to pay.
Good times. I remeber that too, but now it is so fast. I click to go on a page, and within 10 seconds it's up. Cable is sweeeeet.

Who has dial up?
I look at it as one of the consequences of wanting to live in the sticks. Get an internet accelerator. It helps.
