Oh, and for the most part, I am used to my 24k dialup. The problem is 
that I can't open news video feeds or any other large file.  It can take 
over 20 minutes to load something that only plays for a minute.  I can't 
get software upgrades, because half the time, even zipped files get 
corrupted in the lengthy hours long transfer process.  More and more 
news sites are going to video clips instead of print stories, and I 
can't see them!
