Obviously but thats OK!  ;D ;D

NBN has just arrived here, but I doubt I'll bother.  I have no issues with whatever it is I have but, letter box (which has a sign on it saying "No Junk Mail.... ::) )is getting hit with begs from iinet, TPG, and Telstra.  Have to be a tad suspicious about the 'Up to '12/25/100 Mbps download connection speed,' whatever that means.

I don't know what speed i get here on my BigPuddle Netgear device [+200 km from my capital city].

But it is at least twice as fast as my old dial-up account with some extinct bird !!!

.......so that is good,         ......right ?             ;D

Gave up understanding what I got for my download speed. All I know is that I get 200GB download per month. Yet, I use up at most 50GB. Usage varies from 20 to 50GB per month. And since going back to Telstra, my download speeds have improved dramatically. Forever calling up iinet to fix my network connection.

Twice as fast to download compared to your old dial-up? If that is the case, then it would be crawling. I remember the pre-2008 years of dial-up connection. I would leave the page to load up somewhere and read up another page that I had loaded. I would have to stay on one page to read, rather than surf many pages that I do today. Watching youtube clips meant that I had to leave it to load for 5 minutes. Then I would watch when the loading was almost complete, and it would play through to nearly the end before it had to buffer again.

They've got an all female band traveling the Outback doing Aussie bush music?  Wow....

My NBN 250k from Sydney is the same speed as my old connection but a little more reliable... doesn't always drop out when the phone is picked up... only sometimes... still get the line dropouts though....

I hated that. Back in my university days, the university gave us free internet for our home usage. The problem being that dial up was the way to go, seeing that there was only so much the university could do for us. University had to share their broadband among 300+ computers. They did not sort out the routing issues until about 1999. Recall my last year in university 2006, the internet was fast.

Does anyone remember a change in personality people got when they first started using the internet? I recall 1997 was a big eye-opening experience for me.

Not sure about personality - it seems sometimes that those who engage too much in internetting become obsessed with it as an alternative universe, and can become very angry when called away... perhaps there is a new field of psychological study opening up in - say - Monitor Monofocus Syndrome, or Keyboard Obsessional Complex....  MMS or KOC... hmmmm.. that last....

One cure for MMS is to engage in online jokes and neat little word twists, rather than being deep and dark and obsessional about it...
