My new
broadband connection at home works like a charm; although it's "only" a 768 Kbps link, speeds often exceed that by a good margin. It just pisses me off that I waited for well over
two months for the damn
phone-company to pull its head out of its arse and set me up with ADSL, and when I finally called the
cable-company instead, they had me up and running in three days.
I've actually never had broadband at home, only at the office. For years, I've used ISDN to connect to the Internet, and though that's been reasonably fast enough to surf, the per-minute charges have always been a royal pain in the backside. So now I'm a happy camper. Yay.
Listening to
Dido, drinking my
coffee, trying to psyche myself up for the day
ahead.
