with respect to a high internet speed internet connection at home -

joined Comcast Digitial -- and also setup a wireless router...


was able to download 31 MB Windows Update in 2 minutes flat (this was through
the wireless router btw)...in my old world that would have taken along time (
not quite sure how long -but  much longer on 56K dialup modem --- perhaps 3
hours - my estimate is that I now have  100x faster connection ...

I may have been  the last one this forum on dialup -- anyone else still on
dialup?

also go hdtv the same day - awesome - awesome picture - it's almost watching a
footbal game looking through a window ...

to make this a an official ontopic poswt, I recommend a high speed connection to
anyone downloading chess games or tablebases ;>)

tow the line regards,

Michael
