What is adequate DSL speed/cost for 450MHz G4
What is adequate DSL speed/cost for 450MHz G4 A barrage of unnecessary speed and cost options for DSL that I am not smart enough to address, so I seek your application. Practically, I see only the display of content that includes a webcam or movie as being close to the dreaded bandwidth hog demand that we have to be concerned about. I do not see the loading of a page as being a meaningful consideration and anyway its the media that will take the lead and bring the page load time with it. I am using a G4 running 10.4 or 10.5 at 450 MHz and as I view a movie, looking carefully at the download bar as it meets the just in time JIT needs of the display, the JIT bar is just being chased by the display bar, but does manage to just barely stay ahead, so I question the needed expense of faster and faster DSL. I was using 768kbps at $15./mo and the JIT bar was never ahead of the display bar, so I have just now moved to 1500kbps at $20./mo. If I had a faster G4 or G5 - would a 2GHz use any more - I need a faster DSL to meet the JIT criteria? Is any faster just costing more with no real benefit? Am I getting poorer movies and failed to notice it?

No, a faster computer will not require a faster internet connection for what you are doing.

Re: Mail password
your mail server is asking for a password every two minutes because you've set the preferences in your mail client (Apple Mail) to automatically check the server for mail every two minutes. just change your preferences in Apple Mail to never check automatically, then it will only ask for your password when you manually check the server for mail. and if AOL isn't a giant crapola clusterF*** (contrary to educated opinion), then you should be able to tell the AOL server to remember your password.
