    To my very limited knowledge...I think so. Try one of the other sites. See what you get just for laughs and get back with us. Seems to me that the CNET site is the most bogus. Try another.

    Well, I went back through the FAQ, and found that my computer doesn't have the needed hard drive space needed. This thing is junk anyway. I guess that's the next thing I have to shell out money for...
    If you can't build a winning team with that core a fire-sale isn't the solution. Selling the franchise, moving them to Nashville and converting GABP into a used car lot is.

    I could not get the bandplace to work so I tried the rest and added a couple more.


    speakeasy.net
    Chicago and DC
    http://tech.msn.com/speedtest.aspx
    Cnet site direct
    dslreports.com/stest
    Forgot the name of this one

    6 tests 2:01 a.m. Varied only 10 kbps between the high and low

    Also your lines at work might be much faster than your residential lines.

    My dialup lines varied about 10 kbps but high speed varied much more.
