It's slow, yes... it's simply annoying at times, but then, I use it anyway.
 It's not that I hate it, I cry out in desparation at times, but at least I found an ISP that gives free 15 hours everyday (mostly offpeak)  The entire thing costs only about $2.  (Actually it might just be less than $2.) Sorry, I can't give a rant in a happy mood, but you should've seen my rants about dial-up when I was so pissed off. (That was a months ago)

I still have dial-up internet. I use AOL and have used it for 3 years now [ from 6.0 to 9.0 ]. I'll admit that I hate dial-up's extremely slow loading speeds, uploading transfer rates, and downloading speeds, but I've got to live with what I got. My download speeds usually stay in the range of 4kb-8kb per second. But I don't download stuff often, so it's not really that big of a deal. One reason why I don't use high speed is the fact that my IP address doesn't change, so it's much easier to get hacked.
We might eventually get high-speed, but as long as my internet is fast enough to be able to work on my site, I'm content. Not overjoyous, but content. |

lol. I use to hate dail up especially when I was tryna get on aol. It took forever to connect by that time you coulda wrote a letter and it would be in the person mailbox. And don't let the number that's being dailed up be wrong cuz then you have to find another number to connect with. Darm, thank god for broadband
