I just got to college and so far the internet is pretty good. Surfing the web is really fast, but downloads are slow which is dissapointing. Plus, most students haven't arrived yet, and I'm not sure if more traffic on the newtork will slow things down more..

Heh, yeah. They discourage that at my college by offering MS Office, Photoshop, and Dreamweaver in a $30 legal set. I couldn't resist.

I've got DSL, and although it should be 5 times faster than dial-up, it's 7 times faster, and because I'm always connected, it's 20 times better. A very smart move.

Haha. DSL is awesome. I've got a friend that's got GREAT DSL (like 1.4 Mb). DSL can be great, and you're going to have a hard time remembering how bad it really was until 6 months later you jump on your friends 56k machine.

Although, 2Mb cable is good too....
