Holey Lightning Fast Internet Batman!

We all know my DSL that could never be as fast as I pay for because we live too far from the signal was just sad. I was forced to replace my sad computer, which I still miss most days, and Saturday ElCid finally wore me down with promises of speeds of 3 Mps (whatever that means) and we ordered new Internet. The modem came today and while I was at YWs he hooked it up ... W.O.W.

Did you know that the little red bar under videos can go shooting across and the video plays without hiccuping?? I can download files in under an hour??? Heck in under 20 minutes??? When I download files the time left goes down and not up. OOohhh I should buy a movie from itunes just to see if it will take less than 27 hours to download!!!!

I was downloading some free scrapbook files from that link Hil gave me and I was watching Netflix through my Wii and the episode never had to retrieve in the middle...not a single time. It's miraculous what I can do in the blink of an eye.

Wil we need to set up a Skype date so I can get number 6 again, I'll bet it will take less than 12 hours to receive this time!

I have to say I'm not excited to up my bill by $10 but this is totally awesome!!

Yes, I see Wil's name by that and NOT mine...
After a month you will know if the +$10 is worth it! But DON'T let the internet people know if it is SO much better you would pay even more, THEY might take you up on it :-o
