Poll, Do you use High Speed internet?
I am at my parents house right now, and I am fighting a 56K modem, loading a picture is like a death wish. I was wondering how many of you still use dialup conection to the internet?
The choices are simple,
I use some kind of high speed connection.
I use 56K or slower modem.
We are on the internet?
Thanks,
Whiskey

Sorry to say, I'm still on dial-up,,, 
Too rural to have cable(TV or otherwise) ,not enuf homes inna square mile thing,(methinks discrimination for being a land owner of 10 acres  ),, but i am waiting to go on the list for DSL ,prob in the spring they tell me,,,,
I can limp along fine, until i have to download pics etc.,,,,,,,ugggggh! 
Got Sat. TV here, but no plans on adding the 'puter to it,,,,

When I first moved to Florida and had temp. living conditions, I used dialup, and could hardly stand to even check my e-mail. Have used DSL, but use cable now.

Cable, it seems to be the best. I have only used it and dial up, so I don't know about anything else. I'm connected at (what my computer tells me) 12 megs. But, I can generally download at about 3 to 5 megs.
