 | Ahh -the old days "Way back when" I had DirecPC (probably in 2003). It was the ONLY game in town besides dial-up on a old AT$T switch that ran a blistering 24K if lucky. At that time cable in town was analog and I'm well outside their x-persons-per-mile profitability zone.
The receiver I had required a stand-alone PC (which was great because you could play at "tuning" the connection). It worked "OK" and was worlds better then dial-up, even with FAP. One day, WiFi came to town and I never looked back !
I still have the DirecPC dish, LNB and RX/TX in the garage - anybody want it ??? -- 3500/512 5.7 GHz Motorola Canopy Wireless; FoxValley.net "Peace through superior firepower" |
