Comcast Cable at home. I really like it. I've had DSL before, but don't plan on going back. I didn't like it.

That was my work connection though.

Its actually running below par today. :/

6 MB/s.

So are you saying that what I'm getting is good or really good.

Keep in mind that Verzion just upgraded our lines . . . my speed has more than doubled (tripled in some cases) from what I was getting before.

Trance,

So, did you end up going to BoneDaddy's?

And what about that speaker deal I sent you? Is that any good?

No I didnt go. I was hoping that comcast would come out today and they called me and said they wouldnt. Then I saw your post so I figured we could just meet up next week. No I totally forgot to check on that deal. Will look now......

That really sounds good Ruf! Did you read the review that Duckspride wrote? If I ever upgrade I may go that route.

That figures. . . you can always count on Comcast to NOT show up . . . they are one of the worst service companies I've delt with.

And it's a good thing I didn't end up running down there at the last minute as I would have . . . and then no one is there but me . . . .

Maybe in the fall...but I am worried about the clutch a little. I am getting some early signs of wear and tear: the cold clutch shuddering. Good news is the stock clutch is pretty stout and still holds strong. Most likely flywheel scoring or some such. But yes, I will make it when the team heads down this fall.

It was pretty much all silver CL's. When I bought mine, the sales guy tried to get me to take a Golden Sunburst at a big discount. I was shocked when he said Acura planned on the gold being the top selling color.

That sounds like a horrible color. I know that the silver is "satin silver metallic", what is the official name for my white car??
