Hey, I'm impressed! I'll try Mastersplitter and Quickpar, been running
WinRar for awhile now. Thanks!

Yeah, you're on your way to becoming a file whore like me....just not as
advanced a case yet....

If they took away Usenet binaries, I'd simply take their modem back and
be off the net. Everything else is just like TV....SPAM.

I'm very fortunate to have Knology Cable, here in Charleston. There are
two cable companies to choose from, Comcrap or Knology. It's a no
brainer who to choose. Comcrap gives you 2GB/month on Giganews and sends
you threatening letters if you DARE use the bandwidth they brag about.
Knology INCLUDES unlimited service on Usenetserver.com's stack...even has
a DIRECT fiber link to it because they're in the same building in
Atlanta! I'm only 23ms from the knology port on the contract ISP server
which is never maxed out. Service is amazing!

Right now, I would have two limiting factors:
1. when could I access a wifi network?
2. is there really that much out there that interests me? ;-)
If I did that sort of thing.

If I ever get fulltime broadband access, however, who knows? I might
turn out just like you. If I did that sort of thing.
