I know the solar flares are supposed to be effecting everything electronic, magnetic waves and all kinds of stuff, and according to the talking heads, it's only going to get worse for some time.
Who knows, it could be the gremlins again. YIKES!

The biggest problem I'm having is getting the computer to recognize the wireless connection. Other than that AT&T has been pretty good.

Partly cheap, partly (mainly) puter idiot but I'm still on dial-up. Slow is just the way it is.

Ohhhhhh, I deal with this everyday. I have a laptop computer that is about 9 years old. It goes so slow I sometimes think my head is going to explode.
