I have to fork out the 17 quid a month for AOL and I'm only 16. Ah well, some folk get it easy... Viddy A ClockWork Orange, Droogs... Goddamn you to hell 'Newbie' DC Rating... Go up, UP DAMN YOU!

My parents are paying about 25 bucks canadian which I think is a rip off for we get only 20 freakin hours of use!?!?! We live in the country...hmmmmmm.... any way to get a faster connection for cheaper or the same or a litle more price? "I have dreamed a dream... But now that dream is gone from me."

I think Alberta and Ontario also have it, but I'm not sure about the other provinces. Hmm...you might be better off with AOL. Hey, it's slow, but with all those "6 months free" CD's you get, you'll never have to pay for it. Kramy

Kramy Registered 08/06/2002 Points 1888	17th March, 2004 at 15:08:51 - It's mostly in cities I think, but it's also in many small towns(2000-10000 people). How rural are you? Telus probably wouldn't stretch lines out 50km into the middle of nowhere, but you might as well check. http://www.mytelus.com/internet/highspeed/signup.do I heared that some people in the states get hundreds of AOL cd's every year. Wouldn't that be nice. Here we used to get 10 or so a year, but now they've stopped for some reason. Kramy

Kramy Registered 08/06/2002 Points 1888	17th March, 2004 at 15:22:03 - My old 56k connection downloaded at 5.4kb/sec. Now I realize I was lucky to get that. Edited by the Author. Kramy

Rycon Registered 20/09/2002 Points 996	18th March, 2004 at 19:14:21 - RapidFlash, that is impossible since the limit on a phone line is 56, going over that is agianst the law and causes static on the line even for people around you. I get 60kbs on a ADSL line. Edited by the Author. We are the music makers, we are the dreamers of dreams...
Kramy Registered 08/06/2002 Points 1888	18th March, 2004 at 23:13:04 - RapidFlash: Hmmm...are you sure it's not ISDN? Dual-Channel ISDN(whatever that means ) is 128k, over 10kb/sec. Pete: Canada has ultra-fast Fibreoptic lines running all across it, unused. What's worse, not having it and wanting it, or having it and not using it? Kramy
