Well, it finally happened: I got an ISDN line installed yesterday. Whee! Of course, as I write this, it hasn't been turned on just yet, but the jack's in place, and it'll be turned on at some point tomorrow. Once I invest in a really freaking long RJ45 cable (the jack's on one side of my apartment, the computer's on the other) I'll finally say good-bye to the world of regular modems. Although truth be told, I had gotten pretty used to it...both TRIBES and Q3Test work remarkably well over standard modem connections...but after four years of free T1 access 24/7, it was a bit slow to me. So, assuming nothing goes too wrong, tomorrow night's update will say that I'm a happy ISDN user. Of course, something always goes wrong with these things, so you'll just have to wait and see.

Link of the Day: Too many prepositions, conjunctions may crash Word 97. Is it just me, or does it feel like Microsoft is trying to find new and humorous ways to sneak bugs into their software?
