Looks great!

Just one thing.....could you either put a warning in the title for us folks still using a dialup line as a connection to the net ....or size the pics down a bit.

Sorry! I forgot that. As I have a DSL connection and a 1280*1024 res I don`t remember others. I`ll change it!

Natty you gotta stop spending all your money on products and get a high speed connection.

Jose by the way that Opel looks nice, UPP is spectacular on light colors like that.

Wish I could! Where I live there is no cable modem and no DSL. I did have DirecPC satelite downlink for about 2 years but as the name suggests, it was only a sat downlink (about 400kb) so I still needed the dialup line and ISP to connect to the net. I just recently canceled my satelite connection....$12.00/ month for the dialup plus another $50.00 for the satelite was just not sometihng I could justify anymore. Even the 2-way satelite only has a 56K uplink.

Until technology enhancements make it possible for me to get some form of DSL or a real cable TV company comes to my neck of the woods I`m on dialup.

Natty sorry for starting all this about you being the last in the country, etc. I just thought you were sending premium all your money.

LOL...no problem dude. It doesn`t bother me that much anymore. At least I`ve got a T-3 at work.

As for cable....the cable company out here is the oldest cable TV company in the country. 90% of their biz is in the Lehigh Valley in PA so that is where they concentrate their upgrade/improvement efforts. The poor 10% stuck in the northwest tip of NJ are left twiddling their thumbs while waiting for web pages to load.

Call them and ask when it will be available they see it is currently being worked on. That has been the line for the last 5 years.

.

Ah what the hell. Small potatos in the grand scheme of things. Right Boss!
