About 20-25 PC-s I think, it's not a big city type gaming center, just a lagre town type, our city only has a population of about 50,000 so we don't need a huge gaming center. 

The owner of the gaming center doesn't make enough money off the place to get anything faster than that, he actually LOSES money off it, he doesn't even break even, but still, those are about the fastest speeds I've seen from anyone here in Conway.  Most people here are either on 56K (my friend who lives outside of town actually gets 22K :shock:) or on the conwaycorp basic service (like me) which is advertised at 2024/128 (costs $29.99 a month), and a few people downtown have SBC DSL.  I don't know anyone on the conwaycorp premium service because it costs an extra $30 and it's not worth the money for the small speed boost you get (3048/384).  We do have an Axciom here and I'm sure it has something better but other than that, this is probably the fastest here.

My city (Omaha, Nebraska) doesn't even have a gaming/ lan place lol. There is a sort of lan place inside of "Family Fun Center", which is an arcade place but the computers are terrible and the prices aren't great. You have 50,000 in your city and Omaha and the surrounding areas probably has about 500,000 yet we don't have a single Gaming Center....... Not that I really want one because I have my own computer and good gaming connection  :D. Just thought it was interesting.

Yeah the gaming center is the cortex.  But they just switched to SBC DSL a few months ago from conwaycorp premium, so it wasn't that far back unless SBC has some deal arranged with the cortex that I don't know about. 

Speaking of switching, the cortex switched from pepsi products to coke products just recently, I MISS THE MOUNTAIND DEW!! :cry:
