My parents just upgraded to 3mb/sec charter cable... and we got 750 more channels too... CTM took me something like less than a second to download...

Congrats. I wish I had a 3 mb/sec line

3 mb/s is slow now. Everyone's going to 5 mb/s or higher.

That's pretty cool, but the internet itself is still so friggin' slow. (But since my computer crashed, I haven't installed flash and MAN has that helped.)

Isn't there a FF extension that make it so you have to push a button before flash will load?

That would be cool. What about mozilla suite?

For Mozilla Suite I use 'Ad-block', what MGB posted about before. You can choose to disable animations, etc.

We're stuck w/ 56k at my location. Verizon was guessing it'd be 2010-2012 before any high speed inet would become available out here; but I doubt it.

I use adblock too, but life is still better without flash.

If only 1st hadn't have been mean, this would be a nice topic in the trash talk forum, but we can't ask for the world...

3mb/s is the fastest here in about a 50 mile radius. Charter gave it to us for like 30$/month since we've been doing business so long. They threw in the cable for free.

Woot! Soft core porn on 34 movie channels! WOOT!
