Today is my seventh anniversary of me becoming a low-ping bastard, as it was on this day in 1997 that I got my first ISDN line installed. If there's any practical way to do so, I think I will try and find a way to try some online gaming via a modem, just as a reminder to appreciate the joys of being an LPB as well as the skills of those who succeed playing online games via dial up.
