Lets see...

<ten minutes later>

Yes. Damn graphics-heavy board...

Yeah, this really is horrendous. It would probably be half as bad if the parents' computer wasn't some 70mhz-processor piece of crap. The dial-up is just the icing on the cake.

HAHAHAAAA. This is why I don't post much from home. Only when I'm desperate for something to do. Even a 350 mhz processor-laden computer doesn't do much with a 56k modem. (okay, I know 350 mhz isn't really that fast any more, but it only cost me $50, 17" monitor, scroll mouse, 256 RAM, and 2 SCSI drives included).

At least you can make a poll thread. That's half the fun right there.

lucky for me, my dad has become a computer nerd...

DSL, 1Ghz AMD, six hundred something RAM.

not only that but he has NETWORKED to the other computer in the house... a 900Mhz. i half expected him to come to the door with masking tape in the middle of his glasses... spoting a pocket protector.


what a nerd

I find it intriguing how all the choices are the same, yet NO ONE has voted for the last or first choices.

 

[deadair]

that is odd

I just ruined it.
