I don't see too much lag over DSL, I'm usually in the 15-25ms range to a good server (unless two people are playing from my house then it gets to an acceptable 55-85ms that's a bandwidth issue and having only fast Ethernet) I DO however have the ATT switching station at the end of my street.

An SSD is still max 2w i feel perfectly safe leaving one on in a bag even at that point.

the only thing i do that makes me want faster internet is buying games on steam. with 6mbps i have enough to download most games in 3 hours (6gb average)

That was the idea, google wanted to prove that having this tech could improve a community.

yeah for a single user or several non demanding users 5mbps is fine! and it comes with a bitchin' router! word? it costs 40bucks a month for 6mbps internet where i live. so thats a deal and a half.

Wait this is a news website?

Have you tried cleaning out the port with a toothbrush? I've abused my EVO 4G for nearly 2 years and it's fine as long as i clean out the USB port on the bottom

It could be OCD, maybe he's afraid of something and it makes him feel better about it, you never know. Though i think it might be a character attitude where he is extremely insecure and he is using this tick to reinforce it.

I don't get why people amke fun of me for playing racing games, they just go "well that's boring" which i guess is fine people are allowed to be bored by racing. a good race will be action packed and never the same twice especially if you are serious about it. Racing, as a sport, is all about doing something over and…

Console gamer? where? I own two gaming rigs one modern one and one about 4 years old. My PC library is my biggest with 100+ games and counting. I love playing on the PC and if a game is available for that platform that's where i get it. I like to play ps3 split screen with friends though, something the majority of PC…

It doesn't work, but regardless i have a ps2 and hd cables so i'm good to go there haha =) GT5 is great as well.

I was being very serious every time I go looking I have a hard time finding games that I like. I'm a big fan of taking everyday or somewhat mundane but notable cars for a spin and most games do not let you do this. My favorite rally game is still DiRT 2 on PC and it's fantastic (if not perfectly realistic) as…

I have yet to find a racing sim in the same vein and caliber of Gran Turismo on the pc, if you know of one please enlighten me.

Two gaming computers, an original xbox, ps2, ps3, SNES, NES, Dreamcast, Atari 2600, N64, and a WII. all but the PS3 and computers are hooked up to a 32" CRT in my room with many adapters and S**T. all of the cables are hidden well though. i try to keep them all connected so i can play them spontaneously whenever i…

I'm sorry if these are a bit expensive for your budget but they get rave reviews, you aren't getting anything better for less than 80bucks.
