I signed up, got my modem from the local AT&T store, got everything done except for the user name and password. They said they can't give me a user name and password until it gets out of "transition" or some crap like that. Expected date, *9-9-2009*. :-@ I was planning to test DSL on this little update. Total: 26 packages (8 upgrades, 1 downgrade, 2 new, 15 reinstalls), Size of downloads: 142,546 kB Now it is a >15 hour download. I'm starting to picture my 3/4 ton pick-up on top of that DSL box. It's starting to look pretty darn good too. Would sort of miss the ole truck tho. Dale :-) :-)
