I have finally entered the 21st Century

In another great leap forward, I activated my new DSL account yesterday. The improvement in performance is impressive.

Edi, it turns out that here in the USA, external DSL modems are standard issue. (Verizon sent me a Westell Model 6100.) Perhaps my friend thought that I might be getting a cable modem rather than DSL when she left that slot open.

I got a new to me 2.8ghz Intel with 1gig ram and a 250GB HD running XP Pro SP2. It is light years better than my old Duron 1200 with Win98. Now I have to learn everything all over again.

Have fun with your shiny new machine troopie! Sounds like you were long overdue for an upgrade.
