    Dial-up.






    How can you give up those sweet bleeping noises as you excitedly wait to connect? With dial-up, you tend to treasure the loaded page more than you would with broadband, as you need to wait longer with dial-up.

    Broadband, thank God. It's not only faster, it saves me about 200 euros a month, with the way I surf the Net sometimes...

    Broadband. If I ever went back to AOL (the non-broadband AOL at least) I'd go mad.

    Broadband. I'm considering upgrading to 2mbps broadband, but I don't know if my computer can handle that anyway, so I probably won't.

    Broadband. The speed is not my main concern.

    It allows me to post the above junk 10 times faster then standard dial up (11.5 for us cos I rigged the line, hehehe).
