1. Welcome to the "Rocket Club"
The only downfall to DSL and Broadband is if at some time you have to
go back to Dial-Up...it's really the pits!

Mr.Bush Baud Man! He Vedy, Vedy Baud Man!!

6. We got a cable modem last week
I just called Time Warner and went into their office and got a self-install kit and that was that. 2-1/2 hours from start to finish, including the phone call and drive time. About 12 minutes to install.

Enjoy it! We're still not over the newness.
