Right now I'm with AT&T's Economy Internet Service.

It gets the job done, but I want to stream Football games mainly this year and so far its not cutting it. (Maybe a slight upgrade in Memory would be good for my PC too)

So what is the best ISP for the price, and for the Speed?

Processor speed & Internet speed play a big part of it. If you got fast one and not the other, it wont help.

Did the people at Best Buy tell you that?

Unless you have an absolute relic of a processor and are trying to multitask, the processor has a negligible impact on net speed.

Find out what ISPs are offered in your area and get the best bang for the buck.

I know when I upgraded from Windows 98 and a 1.86g Intell processor to a Windows XP with a 2.56 Duo Core 4 years ago, now just 4 months ago I upgraded again to a AMD 2.6g Quad Core processor and Windows 7. Each time, downloads got faster with TWC cable.

Next time I will go for the Zenon, or what's ever out in 3 years.

Well most like it comes from version of Windows you are running and those old azz hard drives that are slow. That's the only thing that MAY slow down your Internet on downloads.

Plus, remember, TW is a shared connection. You can be fast one day and the next day it will be slower...depends on how many people in your neighborhood are downloading porn and fragging people on MW2

      Monroe Freeling’s lovely GF

      With the contract money an OT first rounder makes you can ALWAYS get a new girlfriend.  And probably an upgrade at that.  You only got 2 parents.

      Brother. You are wholly confusing comparing situations and applying actual standards like most other franchises do like simply getting into a playoff series and winning at least 1 or 2 series games with praising. Nobody is praising the Hawks. Nobody is praising the Magic. Nobody here likes those teams. But reality is reality. The Hawks like other franchises have traded players fired coaches etc but they can still win a couple playoff games. How is that not the bare floor for you or anyone else? What are we doing here if it isn't? We've seen eye to eye on many things over the years. But you are in the camp on the Hornets where you are emotionally attached to LaMelo where you feel the need to carry his water like he's got that juice. That's cool that you feel that way. It's your prerogative. But I differ from that viewpoint entirely. If he had that juice we would not have gotten wiped off the court in 2 play in games with 2 different coaching staffs and rosters. if people don't like hearing that well I'm sorry but how the hell is this team ever going to get better and ultimately go anywhere in the postseason if we just blindly pat them on the back for getting their asses whooped before they actually even get into the real playoffs? There seem to be some Bryce Young level standards being applied here. That's wild to me. But to each his own.

      Proctor/Freeling were always the belles of the ball where we were picking. What those two *could* become at OT was far greater than what others could be at their respective positions and I’m glad our FO could see that.
