Title: You gotta love cable modems
Post by: Udie on May 21, 2000, 10:26:00 AM
 It's amazing how far technology has come in the last 5 yrs. When I first found CK/WB back in 95 I had a 14.4 modem, and was told that all I needed to play was a 9600 baud modem.  Well for 2 hours last night I flew in the main arena while downloading a 300MB file.  I didn't see 1 warp at all. The only thing I noticed was that my fps was down about 10%.  I bet this was because I had about 3 other programs running including the ftp.

 Just wait until we have gig/sec bandwidth over the net  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)  then you'll be able to see if your wingman is picking his nose at d100  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/smile.gif)and even tell if he's diggin in the left or right nostrile!!  (http://bbs.hitechcreations.com/smf/Smileys/default/eek.gif)
