I'm OK downloading, but uploading bites on a Satellite modem (still way faster than dial-up).  I think it's true that you want it to move faster no matter what your connection is.

I wonder how many of our users are still on dialup?  Didn't we do a poll of that awhile ago?

KarmaGirl goes off looking for the answer.....

Yeap KarmaGirl, we did do a poll a while back.This dial up sucks.

On the last poll (which was a long time ago) about 1/5 were still on dialup.  I started a new poll with slightly different wording to see if the results are the same.  (The other poll had been up for a few weeks, anyway and needed a change.)  So, go vote!

Just voted! No way would I ever want to go back to dial-up. I'd go without food first if money was an issue

Yes dear, on my way.

connection get raised soon, will become 1 mb or something like that currently stuck on +- 750 kb/s

You poor guy Styl.

WOM feel sorry for you.

poor dial up guys...

yes i feel for them. Kona is happy with 256 kbps DSL. I WILL NEVER do dial up again. way to slow!

I prefer quality wp over smaller file size. On my work puter, I have a nice collection of walls to cycle through...either from WC or my own photos. At home, I have used the same wall for years...just a simple tiled bmp that makes my desktop look like a tapestry.

As far as connections...at home it's 512 DSL...at work it's T1, which incidentally is slower than most dial-ups (for web browsing), mainly due to the fact that most of the bandwidth is dedicated to data transfer ....so, for once I can say my home connection is faster than my T1 line at work!

what I wouldn't give for a t3 dedicated line in my house.....

QUALITY!!! I run at 1280x1024 and I like to use nice wallpapers, usually bitmaps. I have a real hard time finding quality ones for this size.

WOM I'm getting 52.0Kbps on a dialup you better check that out 28.0 seems really low.

Cable in my neck of the woods is $42 and it's going up about $2. I can afford it but I don't download anything over 8megs anyways so it dosen't matter to me. I'm not in any hurry

I am on Dial-up too, and downloading is anywhere between 2 - 3.5 Kbps
No money for Broadband:(

Although I like those high quality wallpapers it just takes ages to download them.
