Re: Good to hear!

i guess the poll depends on who you ask....as many companies CLAIM to have highspeed internet which is dial up that caches pages.....thus it is still dial up LOL

availabilty is a problem also.....many cannot get it....others do not need HIGH bandwidth broadband but a lower tier would do.....how ever providers like mine which is mediacom has a lowwer tier which is better than dialup but not super fast....i think it is 128/64 which is still better than dial up....however they will not sell it except they will offer it to customers who decide they do not need 3000/256 .....so untill greedy companies like this offer lower tiers...it will not help any either

lol yes

you cant get a true user count by asking
a 1000 people what they have dial up --or high speed

you can see on forums all over the net that even in and around the city limits of large citys ther are still many that have no options

heck in louisiana there are many many places with out a pots telephone lines

they use cell phones and what ever -- too keep in touch with the outside world
