Steve: OT - Internet delays / IT behaviour

re: IT behaviour hasn't happened here and isn't likely to

Good luck, but watch out. It all starts with the cliche: Total cost of ownership. If you hear these words from your IT manager you better shoot him before you lose control..

(disclaimer - metaphorically speaking only, pls don't gun down anybody.)

Check out the cartoon strip Dilbert last week for more on the phenomena.

re: Home access - Thanks for the tip on PCS. Who/where should I watch for this? You think it will be priced competitively? (I bet not).

re: Responsiveness - I think your right. DNS access seems to be a problem. FYI - I very often wait two or three seconds for a new page to start loading. I often open two windows and ping pong. Read one while the other is accessing the next message!
