I never did get a 9600. I had whatever was lower than that4800, I th ink, for the longest and then went to the 15.5...14.4? I dunno. Then straight to Cable Modem. Now running DSL, because there are more places I can plug it in, didn't really think about the cable jacks as being for computers when we built the house.
My "handles" were Redcat Golden, Spanielhead, and Spanielhead II. Back in the days when copy/paste of the ascii to make it look like a new post inside your post would get you labeled a hacker. waah waah waahaaahah.
