dial up at home until they get DSL out here in the boonies -- I'm only 35 miles west of where everyone can get DSL.
At work I can get the free wireless FAST service. Actually right now my dial up is very fast for some reason.

At work, who knows-- it's mucho fast, but it has to be to support thousands of users.

At home, Comcast High Speed Internet. I'm supposed to get 4000/256, but my last test showed this: 5338/342 kbps.

Go broadband!
