well, i've only got until next wed to wait for my adsl.
the biggest thing i'm gonna appreciate is the ability to download an mp3 in less than 20 minutes and sub-100 pings in vc

When I got dsl I was just amazed, I could not believe it, now I take it for granted and see it as normal speed...

I need more bandwith, more speed!!!

Good for you. I have had crappy cable for about 7 years now and still no improvment. The cable company said we would be able to get DSL in 6 months, the thing is that they said that about 2 years ago. We have still yet to see any improvment.
