I just spent the last hour updating my AVG...download speed was 904 byte
per second. (0.91 KBPS) WOOT! (the total size of the updates was right
at 1.3 Megs) I got two phone calls during that hour, too.
If there are wannabe homesteaders out there who are listening, be sure
and check ISP options before you move from the city and do some
financial planning to afford satellite if it is in any way important to
you. Don't assume dialup is 56 KBPS if you are a long way from town.
Next up is a 9.5 MB Firefox update. See y'all sometime tomorrow.
