I just have a new proof that the servers are the real bottlenecks in todays networks. The DNS service is screewed up again which probably prevents most people from accessing Silicon Investor. As a result the response is almost unbelievably fast. Normaly I don't notice that much of a speed difference between the T3 access in the lab and a 28800 modem at home but now the pages pop up in a small fraction of a second. BTW I used the IP address to bypass the DNS problems. 204.71.189.206 Andreas
