Addi and ALL,

I forgot to mention that I junked my ISP for a cable TV hook-up from MediaOne a couple of weeks ago. Cost ..... $140.00 for the hook-up, including ethernet card plus $50.00 per month. Not much more monthly than I was paying (including a dedicated phone line).

The increased speed is truly amazing ..... almost no waiting anymore (at least for now). I love it. It screams.

I was using a 28.8 - 33.6 Cardinal modem with a regular, but dedicated telephone line and a local ISP.

My system is a P-5 233MMX with 512K cache, 64 SDRAM and 3.2 GIG ULTRA EIDE hard drive.

By the way, MediaOne told me that they use only Netscape Communicator. I do not know if this is a local or national policy.

'Hope this is of interest.

Ken Wilson

Addi, you are dead right on this one. There is no bunch to be more pittied for than "analysts": Show me one good one and I'll change my mind. Normally, they just beat dead horses and miss with their earnings estimates.
