hahaha, well if my box van can't beat it, I know for a fact my Yota Rolla can. My Yota Rolla believe it or not, will out run all my other vehicles. That will tell you, I don't have any performance toys anymore.

Oh. you say broadband. Does it make a difference if I think the techs that were here said something to the affect of narrowband or is that just a slang term.(making fun of me)

[hotrodpc]

Yup, cable is much faster Cz. I could have it, but the price is ridiculous. So I am paying $15 a month for my 2.42 and its satisfactory for me. What he has it good for the gamers. I am not a gamer. I am a Forumer . No, not foreigner,... FORUMER !!!

[Crmzendrgone]

OH forumer got it I figured with your yota rolla you're a foreigner. hehehe

[hotrodpc]

Doh, its 4:30. Gotta get ready for the 5th job already. Time for me to fly. Be back about 9:30pm. Kinda bummer having so many jobs. I already worked 2 of them today, going work the 5th one now, and then will work the 4th one when I get home. But, I am doing what I gotta do. Not everyone has the luxury like BB to have a problem how to spend 2 grand !!!

No, don't remind me about the Yota Rolla being foreign. I can only live with myself since it was assemled in USA with USA labor. I am ashamed enough as it is. But I had to do it to get around the gas crunch and high prices. I have had it now for 1 year 11 months and 50,000 miles. So I saved a ton of cash on fuel.

I understand completely. I'll be getting ready myself for work soon.

I'm not an online gamer either, but I am a systems admin, so high speed is critical for me. Waiting days for a 20gb server backup to download isn't an option. Besides, it actually worked out cheaper this way. My g/f wanted the cable for TV, so we had it anyway. Adding broadband to it costs us about $40 per month, and Vonage runs us $30, but that let us drop Verizon and AT&T LD, which were running us almost $200 per month (we make a lot of LD and overseas calls) so it's a net savings of $130 per month.

Yep, I see the saving and justification there for you to have the Cable broadband. Mine is fine for email, forums and eBay, so I call it good enough. Its rare I a doing downloads of anything over 8-10MB and that woudl be a .pdf service manual for a computer, or printer in most cases, or motherboard tatoos for propietary systems. I also do in home tech work for an extended warranty company on comptuers and printers. I know many probably think I am joking when I say I am working 5 jobs right now, but really I am not kidding about that.
