They tend to bog down pretty badly on dialups; trying to share a dialup connection among multiple computers results in frustration for everyone :( Next time you get a chance to surf at 9600 bps, or even 14400 bps, try loading anything on the WWW (except for very lightweight sites like S6H, the FAQ, or Mark's FPM site) and you'll see what I mean :) (Says the guy who spent two weeks at 9600 bps over Christmas because he had to use his Bluetooth-enabled cell fone for dialup.) -- the pickle FAQ <http://macfaq.org/index.shtml> _________________________________________________________________ -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
