How Spoiled Are We...er, Me?
It trips me out when I look back on my days of using a cassette player Walkman and 1,200 baud dial-up modem and how far I've come in my impatience.
Now, I have 5,000 songs on my 3rd Generation iPod that's the size of a deck of cards and I think it's a gigantic piece of hardware when you see things like the Nano.
I get pissed when a web page takes more than 2 seconds to load because cable modems are so damn slow.
No wonder I scream at folks driving 35 mph down G'Town Parkway-- BTW the speed limit is posted at 50 mph, please follow it.
It's all relative and I think my addiction to compactness and speed has spoiled me.

True dat..
If your cable modem is that slow you might have to get a faster computer..haha.
Get rid of that deck of cards and go smaller. The nano is so nice or even better get the new Video ipod. You can watch movies and tv shows.
My guess is that their desktop is using some of the IPOD tech. Now if the G5 was wireless like the IPOD and used a wireless keyboard you could take it anywhere in the house.

the cable modem is blazingly fast but it's become the standard-- anytime it's less than 1 mps i get crazy in the head.
