Dang... Something's up with my internet. Maybe it's the storm outside that makes it look as though it's like 10PM instead of 3PM. But anyway, my internet is REALLY slow right now, worse than 56K, so if I'm not replying to PMs or something, it's because of this.
 
Like how many seconds (or minutes!) does it take to load a page slow?

A TBT page usually takes 30 seconds to load. A page like Yahoo Sports takes a minute... I haven't really tried graphic intensive pages, though. Could be like 2-3 minutes.

That sucks. Reminds me of my computer when it was crawling with viruses.

Heh... my old computer had dialup and adware everwhere... tons of weird stuff too... it was crazily slow.

It's really not that expensive if you ask me. When I switched from dialup to DSL, it cost only a few bucks more. It depends who you get it from though I guess.

Yeah, You may as well update it for a couple bucks more.
 
Yea i used to have dial-up before... I got DSL last summer and I ain't going back to dial up again D:
 
At least you have an internet. My computer turns off every five minutes and takes half an hour to turn on!

And I hated dial-up.

Virus-loaded?
Probably, but I scan literally every site I go on, and never get nothin'.
