Jon [and all other lucky cable modem users],

Can you comment on how @Home (or whatever cable internet provider you use) has affected your pattern of internet use, if at all? Are you spending more time on the net because of its presumed increased usefulness, or less time because you are wasting less time waiting for pages to load? Are there any particular sites that you find particularly appealing now that you have fast service which you found much less appealing with a standard modem? Presuming you use SI because you are an individual investor and use net resources like SI to research and manage your portfolio, would you say that @Home has had no impact, slight impact, or significant impact on your ability to profitably manage your portfolio? Has @Home had any impact on family or friends you have shown it to who previously had not used the net because it was too slow or too boring or whatever?

Thanks in advance,
SC
