anox195 Posted October 3, 2007 Author CID Share Posted October 3, 2007 Yea, it actually feels that my 57.99 a month has come to value. I feel sorry for all the brits who are paying near 150 euro for a 1.5mbps connection and dont even get half that. Go Go Comcast. 10 out of 10 so far.

I do indeed , but I was not born a Brit , by birth I am French , and how we love you Americans my objection is to your use of the word stupid , Btw,you ain't American , just a mongrel in my book , same as the rest of the world population , me included , you need to loose your American isolationist view , it ain't serving the USA too good at the moment , just my thoughts , please feel free to disagree ,, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
