Default Re: OT-www distinction?
Are all of them pointing to the same name server, thusly to the same web server? Are all of the 3 comps you tried connected to the net via the same ISP? Try running some traceroutes to the various domain names, from the various PCs, to see if the paths are wildly divergent (make sure to run a few of each to drop out any divergent middle bits). It is possible there is some major ISP router that is caching the page, but that isn't very likely, I think.

It should really be instantaneous, since ISP routers don't usually do too much caching, IIRC.
