This might be a bit exaggerated....might....
I really don't know why the Target website was chosen. lol
Anyway, an interesting little movie that shows how slow Dial-up is.

Dial up is a big rip off!!!! Good video.

It was a joke, since you can't use both at the same time.

Also, I think you meant to say "were"

the thing is.... in '95 and such when the big online boom happened, most all websites were all text based with 1 or 2 graphics. NO flash. NO java. NO streaming. it was all about "Information" so that's why dial-up can't work now, because now the internet is about entertainment. that's why its takes 5 years to load a page, all the animations, video, scripts, and such. it just takes years to load all that crap now. back then we didn't have it. ah well.

The sad part is...it's really not all that exaggerated...XD

Sure, for the 90's it was good, but for today's standards, not so much. I'm so lucky that we're fortunate enough to have high-speed internet, both wireless and hard-wired. When I'm on our wireless connection, I get 54.0 Mbps as the fastest speed, and on our hard-wired connection, we get 100.0 Mbps. All I can say is: "It's really fast!"

u can use both if u have 2 lines

[Linkstman]

[brandaogu]
