Braggart.

Even in "techo-cutting-edge" Redmond, I can barely get 15 MB down /768
Kb up and that on DSL.

Hi Amy,
Thanks for the info. We might be moving off the T1 soon and onto a
static IP cable connection with Comcast. I heard a rumor that they were
moving to 16Mbps down and 2 up, which would nicely complement my FiOS
15Mbps down/2 up. Get that working with RainConnect and life will indeed
be sweet on Usenet ;)
