I will agree, to disagree .
I'm in the school of thought...just because it cost more, doesn't make it 100% reliable.
(As I say this..I think about the Sony TV that sits in the living room...a name brand..that I paid more for.

Why don't you disagree to agree with disagreeing?
No true, but if they have been around for 5-6 years without any major problmes that usually means they are pretty good
@Sony, no one makes TV's like Sony, they are the best IMO

The Weasel Dictionary(TM)?
What word would you get stuck on first?
Armidilo? Ardvark?

Hey there Weasel and Mr Sleep.
I've changed ISP's twice. With the first one, it took us at least 5 tries before we could connect but then we kept on getting disconnected from them after around 20 minutes or so. Calling them for troubleshooting didn't help. Naturally we blamed them for the bad service and I changed to another one. This did not fix the problem so I called their troubleshooting service multiple times but to no avail. They closed down shortly so I changed once again. This time the troubleshooting was helpful and I eventually found that it was not the fault of any ISP but a faulty modem driver.
In the end, all I got for all that trouble was a working internet connection but a massive phone bill.

*straightens glasses, turns up nose*
As a matter of fact, the proper spellings for these symbols are "armadillo" and "aardvark"...

Well i have checked all that over the weekend, thinking it was my phone line, unfortunately turns out it is my ISP that are the problem. I could dial up using a free account, but that was no kind of solution

And how would one describe them without using a dictionary of any kind?

Don't do it, you will have a huge void in your life, You will lose all purpose without this game to focus on!

Good plan, it took me ages to get around to it. Hope it doesn't dissapoint too much
Not bad, ISP probs (as you may have noticed
) but generally okay
