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

      Bryce Young 5th year option exercised

      No saying he mostly sucks is saying that he doesn’t suck the minority of the time.   Like if he took 17 tests and had a couple of really good showings and a handful of pretty good scores sprinkled in among the typical sub par results.   Like a golfer who went out and shot an 89.  There will be some real nice shots sprinkled in there but at the end of the day it is still 89.

      It's worth mentioning... Game 1: Oct 11 in Raleigh. 4-3 OT win with a complete starting lineup. Game 2: Dec 13 in Philly. 4-3 SO win without Jaccob Slavin. Game 3: Dec 14 in Raleigh. 3-2 SO win with a complete starting lineup. Game 4: Apr 13 in Philly. 3-2 SO loss with the AHL roster.  Those early season games were no indication of the Canes team that finished the season. Miller and Ehlers were still trying to figure things out, Nikishin was still a work in progress and the Stankoven line was just another line. Make no mistake, the Canes team Philly will see is nothing close to what they saw at any point in the season. If the top line starts producing, Freddie stays hot and the blue line does what it does, this could be a sweep as well.
