    Default How do you get here?

    We've all seen Steve's post on how people find us.

    But I'm curious to know how you get here.

    What kind of connection do you use?

    I got here by cable (What!?) Then the keyboard and mouse carried me the rest of the way.
    Would it be uncool for me to say "I'm having cable trouble" cuz I am. Maybe I should go down stairs and check it...Nah.

    Default Speed crazy

    Cable gets the job done for me. FIOS was installed in my neighborhood last year, but so far I have resisted the temptation. .....oh the need for speed.........the urge to surge......its a blast to go fast........sick to be quick......a gift to be swift............thanks I needed that!

    DSL for me. Its funny how fast technology passes me by. If only we had a better cable company in my area, or anyone that would bring in fiber.

    Actually it's because DSL started out as ISDN, and is part of a much larger category of DSL hybrids.
