Congratulate me!

Today I had been connected to Internet through cable. No more dial up now. k:
I hope I'll be on forum more often now.
Although, without jokes, the prices are quite expensive for our town, compare to others. That's how my friends say. I don't know. About 10+ cents for 1 Mb of incoming data. And some messing with VPN, but that's not very uncomfortable.

EDIT Yes, and the most important - SPEED!!! That's not those goddamn 4kb/sec.

€ 29,95 (minus some discount because we also have tel en tv from the same supplier)

10 mbit down, 10 mbit up, unlimited data

Edit: oops I lied. It's actually a little bit more. We pay €56/month for the whole lot...

Edit2: But, off course, to stay on topic, gratz with the bandwidth, Nick It sure makes internet-ting a whole lot more fun if you've got a decent connection and don't have to dial-in all the time k:
