Me too but with my new I Mac with my old internet hookup, my internet 
loads as 8-10 faster.  I think it is due to newer technology  in the 
modem.  Still not cable or DSL or T1 but a heck of a lot better than 
with the old 6100 60AV I was using.

Hummmm, a snail mail MAC/Satellite Group?  It's a thought.
