Cool! :)

You left yesterday all of a sudden...or at least I didn't notice you connected. :)

TMD's got a mad post count. :D

It's like he's addicted to posting. :D

I was on a dial-up last night and I got fed up with the connection. Thank goodness for wireless.

That he is! :)

I hate dial-up! :cry:

No way to get a high-speed connection over here though...no company wants to lay down the infrastructure for it...:sad:

I'm sure that will change some day. My state got a $250,000 grant to make parts of it wireless. Unfortunately, the money has disappeared amongst the chaos of a budget crisis.

I see...well, let me clarify, because the situation is even more bitter. ;)

I could walk to houses with DSL connections. I have an uncle with one. However, the companies can't be bothered to lay down the infrastructure where I live.

It's Liberty Cable IIRC...I so want to kill them right about now...I want a high-speed connection! :cry:

Around here the cable internet works a bit better than DSL.

DSL is everywhere here, but cable is only available in some places, it's mostly at the 8Mbps or 20Mbps speeds, though there are areas where 1.5Mbps is the highest and some areas that are limited to dial up only - 56k, some even down to 28k

Interesting glitch in H5.

First campaign, last mission(fall of the king)

week 2 hits, and I lose. Saying that I lost a town, when I had one captured.

Thoughts?

H5 sucks :D

Sigh I had a 8mb connection but had to downgrade to 4 because my area doesn't support it :disagree: Of course I'm glad not to get disconnected several times on a daily basis anymore.

In any case I'm going on a trip today so I'll see you guys on Sunday :) Exams tomorrow afternoon though the lesson itself needs little preparation.

A good punch to the throat is always good for keeping coworkers from coming too close. It works so well, you won't have to deal with an annoying coworker in that business ever again!
