What would you do if you did not have broadband?

nice to know my latrinal requirements are of great interest

Seriously though... it's a damn fine invention, almost on a par with trousers.

lol, nice.

Thanks suz, at least I know Ive got frineds at Ozzu!

u know wots so dumb, the major dsl websites say its available in 98% of australia hah. i dont believe that i live in that 2% and im not that far out of melbourne. booyah to them.

I have dial-up now so I wouldnt know different.

I do however, have the pleasure of 18Mbps *cough* yes 18Mbps speeds at University. Shame theyve blocked all the P2P and also the fact that I finish next week!

I have only had broadband for a few months and it is so much better than dial up but I think I could live without it if I had to.

hrm... lets see... if i did not have broadband i would go buy it...

I'd cry like a little baby. Then I'd cry some more.

Oh, wait! I don't have BB.

I feel for you. I dont know how I ever lived w/o it!

Really, I'm doing fine. You can't truly miss what you never had. It will be great when I do get broadband. I'll have to get another hard drive!

Well Joe,
course you have, i forget how many members BWM has lololol
But to be honest joe, i admire you, you know your tech stuff, i have to admire anyone who can hold them kind of conversations think thats about all ozzu cept me lol
Take for instance, remember the ip thing..the global ip i dived into, well it was then i thought, hey this guy knows what hes on about lmaoooooo listen to him suzie..so suzie did/does...and anyone else i think talk what i need to know.

well this is what i was saying earlier, i was quite happy with dialup, most of the sites i visited did'nt have flash images on the web pages, i was'nt interested in Flash/Swish then, so the places i went to where quick to load, no problem, no need for b/band, then of course i heard about Swish, that changed my life, how i surfed for ever, i got b/band !
suzie.

Basically, I limit myself to content that loads quickly. Long downloads I do overnight. When I do get broadband, there are going to be many new resources for me to tap.

I believe there are..music and video is quicker so they tell me, i don't do any of that though, am not interested enough, my time is spent only at the fav forums i have been to since i got b/band.
Before i had never even heard of discussion boards, now i'm addicted lolol and don't do nothing else.
I love the spirit of the communities they bring together, ways to support peeps through good time and bad times such as bee is having right now, i don't do hols, never been abroad cus i'm scard of flying (claustrophobia) keeps my feet firmly on the ground, but when asked about where i compute to, i say all over the world, this is the good part JrzyCrim, i speak to people all over, in many differnt countries, i love it !!!
Enjoy your b/b when you get it, i'm sure you will.
suzie.

It's only a matter of time before I do. And yeah, like you suzie, I love forums. It's great being with people from all over. When I first got access to the internet, I spent most of my time on usenet and irc. I don't do IRC these days; Mainly stick to forums.

I'm mostly interested in streaming video when I get BB. MIT has free video lectures online. I can view them now but they stall out frequently and the quality is poor at 56k.

hi,
If i didnt have a cable i wouldnt be online. Slow computers drive me crazy

i live in the uk. i lived in a place called luton near london and i had b'band . i LOVED IT!!!!. my family move to the country side (in the middle of no where) so not only did i move schools,area and every thing else the place i moved to DIDNT HAVE B'BAND!!! i had to buy a 56k modem. speaking to the cows and animals in the miles of fields i have to pass to get to town i found out that the exchange only upgraded to a digital line about 5 years ago (that means 5 years ago the had 2 wind the telephone up to ring sum 1 lol) . since i moved i have phoned bt(british telecom) asking for b'band and i finally got sum where!!! they are now finalizing plans to install it!!! only down side is it could take as long as summer 05 to get ere.
