Yup, I did it! And after only 4 calls to Teck support have it up and running, so look out! No more slowness on my side of the court. No sir, 'er mame. No more sittin' watchin' that little ball go round and round...

...and the best thing about it, its cheaper than the "old and unimproved" lousy pudder hookup and I can talk to my baby on the telephone... she said whatcha doing... can ya' come back home... I can't hold out... I can't hold out too long... gotta a real good feeling... talking to my baby on the.... telephone.

Oh, to be on the 21st century side of the bridge!!!....

It is a wonderful change, isn't it? We just set up a second computer, and networked them to the DSL using a wireless router. We're all happy (and I can use my computer all by myself now, without my kids lining up to use it after I finish earning my living on it).

DSL is absolutely NOT 21st Century Tech... Late 20th, sure... But 20th, none the less...

Hopefully 21st century tech will involve direct neural interfaces and such like...
