Daniel,

Well I live up in Canada and we don't pay near $.55 for coke. IN the vending machines Coke is $1.50 (600ml bottle I think). I can get no name generic crap from a vending machine (same size) for $.45 last I checked... That is more than a 3X premium for Coke. I still buy Coke.

The old saying you get what you pay for is true. That $20 modem is most likely a "winmodem" which will need at least a PII-300 to achieve 56K and god help you when you try and play the real video stream.. sucking all the cpu time reduces bandwidth... a good modem will cost you $75 and work! ;-)

Steve
