My spell check doesn't work.
:(

And I'm not a very good speller.

:(

I am at the man's house and his computer is just awful. It's so slow even though it's suppose to be DSL.

Everytime I hit 'check spelling', it doesn't load.

So please forgive my spelling errors.

I think I spelt a word wrong in a post in GD.

Should I be scared? :hide: :scared:



That is all.

:)

2. Man, DSL can suck sometimes.
I'm sure many here do just fine with it, but we used to have it and it SUCKED bigtime. This cable is ...ahhhhh....wonderful in comparison.

We'll let you slide for now....:)

8. The DSL at my home computer
works great.

The man's computer is old, maybe that's it.

11. Actually, it seemed to have a relation
Edited on Thu Oct-19-06 10:38 PM by lildreamer316
to how close you were to a hub or something of that sort.
They were also working out a bunch of kinks when I first got it about 5 years ago. But, I won't go back because they double charged us and would not admit it. I was paying for 2 lines,at a total cost of $250 when we cancelled. It's the principle of the thing.

P.S. For goodness' sake make the man do a disk cleanup if it's PC. So many ppl forget to do that, and it slows you down something mighty.

12. I don't know how much he pays.
But 250 seems like a lot, even for two lines.
