While I don't expect that the included tip will hurt a Windows computer, I seriously doubt it will help. I have yet to see a computer that seemed to have a bottleneck at the NIC. I just wish I could afford such internet access. Then again, what would be the point? Few sites are capable of sending out the data at that rate anyway. If anyone tries this and it helps please drop me a note. I remain quite skeptical. -- Kirk Wood Cpt.Kirk at 1tree.net ------------------ Seek simplicity -- and distrust it. Alfred North Whitehead
