I don't know -- I haven't had any connection problems on here, and I've spent way too much time jumping on and off of this place over the past couple of days.

No insult or put-down intended - I work with people who think I am insane when I describe what PC's were like before Windows appeared - and don't believe that you used to have to put in/remove, etc. those huge 5" floppies just to boot the OS.
