Just think. By New Years day next year, you'll be ready to play! That would drive me nuts. But don't feel bad. My top download speed is 157kbs, and my kids is 875! So even though I'm where you wish you were, I'm wishing I was somewhere else! Did that make sense?



Edit: Go to TechSpots download section and download the Internet Download Manager. Even though my max speed is 157, it manages to pull me up to around 180, which no download manager I've used previously could do. And every little bit helps. It's a 30 day free trial.

do you have satellite internet or something?

But, both of you don't feel bad, my max download speed is 4kbps (dial up), though, my modem bursts when it first starts to download, up to 109kbps!

How long did it take for you to upload a pic of your pc?



As for the picture...I used to have 88KBps, now I have 358! For only $20 more per month! Trust me it was hard for me playing Halo around that speed, the ping was usually in the 300's or more. :P
