I have just got broadband (cable) connection to the Internet. I decided to ask a nosy question and see who has dial-up (world wide wait;) ), DSL Cable, T1, etc.
BTW, broadband RULES!

Use to have dialup, but in January switched to BROADBAND:D :D
Don't have to play Freecell during downloads anymore.!
I have DSL at my dads and Cable at my moms..We have 4 comps hooked to the same internet connection at my dads so DSL is the best for that I believe :D
I have cable hookup from Charter because my my brother works there!:D
DSL, and I love it!!!
Broadband! Definitely Rules!:D
I have Cable Modem from RoadRunner Time Warner.
I have dial-up connection, it`s not so bad....most of the time!:D

I have a Road Runner Cable modem.
Broadband Cable, of course!
Sigh........the ancient AOL dial-up.............(I play Spider Solitaire, not Freecell, while waiting for Pet Talk to load ;) )
I'm just too cheap to pay extra for DSL, and I'm paranoid about broadband because it puts you on a "network" along the cable route. It took us a year just to decide to spend the extra $10 a month for a second phone line so we weren't tying up the phone with our Internet - I have to be dragged into the 21st century kicking and screaming, I guess! :p

Woohoo, lucky me, I have AOL. :rolleyes:
Everyone we know keeps badgering us to get Optimum or other kinds of dial-up, but I myself do not want to change. Simply because I don't want to lose my nice e-mail account and all my favorites and files. Plus, it goes a bit faster than Netscape and some of the others I've known. But hey, I'm not paying the bill, so that's just me.
AOL has to be connected to the internet to have anything internet-wise run; Netscape, Internet Explorer, AIM, Trillian, etc. They all run on AOL's power. So if AOL has to close (and it does have to close A LOT), then everything else goes bye-bye. :rolleyes:
dialup
ditto..what ACG&S said.
