Sad, but true... said by Bagnon: Are there still people wasting money on dialup technology? It will be obsolete in the next decade.
Unfortunately, the answer to that is yes. The suburban area I now live in (80 miles north of NYC, and a scant few miles from IBM's Poughkeepsie datacenter) had absolutely NO consumer broadband service until one year ago; at that time, cable went live. Three months later DSL was available.
There's still a lot of folks in the USA who can only DREAM about broadband until the technology comes their way. Until that day, they're stuck on dial-up, and a local call POP if they're lucky! [text was edited by author 2003-09-23 07:01:44] |
