Ah, I know what you are talking about. I'm not sure where that box is, because I just got DSL and I don't know where they installed it. I'm probably not extremely close, but my county is too small for me to be extremely far away.

I'm pretty sure it's my distance from my ISP, because my dial up was half as fast as everyone else's too.

Although the reason might be that I still have above ground phone lines, and the constant shaking from the wind causes an unstable connection. The rest of my county has underground lines.

At first I was angry about them buying TechTV, but I can very safely say I love it much much more now. The only show I lost that I liked was Call for Help, and in replace of it I got my new favorite shows, such as Electric Playground, Judgement Day, Pulse, Arena, and my favorite...G4TechTV.com: the show. Laura and Tina are very nice to look at.

I like it because there are more video game shows on besides Xplay.
