I plan on upgrading when this computer dies. No need to spend the dollars upgrading this computer just to go buy new one in a year or two.
I'm cheap and that's why my kid's get to go to a good school
That's not being cheap. That's being a good father. :)
Computers don't die, they just sort of faaaaaaade awaaaay......
Excellent.
Ern, I'm using dial up too, mainly because I'm going to be moving again in about 8 months so it isn't worth the effort to get DSL at this location. But anyway, my connection is at 45.2 kbps and it only took me 2-3 minutes to download the graphics on this post. All dial-up services are not the same. I won't mention any names but one service that I tried a few years ago was really sloooooooooooowwwwwwwww compared to my current ISP. I have a new computer running at 3.2 ghz and that has speeded up my modem communications compared to my old PC. But you may be able to get more speed with a different ISP.
