Al, thank you for the info I only use four or five windows at a time, and have not had any trouble switching from one to the other. It is instantaneous. I use two servers on one Ricochet modem MSN and NETSCAPE and have instant switching abilities there. Getting on the net takes about five seconds for Netscape and two second for MSN. The longest Download appears to be for Quote.com, that sometimes takes fifteen to twenty seconds. At certain times of the day it seems much faster. I was not complaining about my computer, only trying to point out the advantages with Ricochet, Perhaps wire connections are as good with fast modems Another question; will there be any effect on unlimited use of wireless at a reasonable price if telephone companies start charging for wired internet connections?
