    With DSL there is no thing as waiting for a page to load.

    I use dial up at home. For most pages I've learned to tollerate the approx. 30 second down load time by opening many pages at once, and reading one that's loaded while the others are still loading. But pages with lots and lots of photos are kind of annoying.

    Fast DSL.

    FTTH is scheduled to be installed within a year. Going from 2.2 megabit to 25 Megabit is going to be awesome.

    I use a Cingular wireless PCMCIA card. Supposed to be low level broadband, but I've seen dial up that was faster.

    DSL Pro plus a Pentium 4 Processor @ 3.0GHz versus my 1998 version, 450 MHz so there's
    more to it then just the connection link.
