Weekend Lookback
by Maarten Goldstein, Dec 19, 1999 4:55am PSTBecause I have this feeling today is gonna be even worse than yesterday, here's a CNN article from June 96, talking about the original Quake release. How about that huh..heh
It plays much the same as "Doom," but is technologically enhanced. While "Doom" allowed as many as four players to blast away together on a level, "Quake" is now so advanced that hundreds of gunners can play together. "Quake" has been criticized as being one of the most violent computer games ever, but according to Jay Wilbur, the Biz Guy (yes, Biz Guy) at id Software, that's not a problem.Thanks to the dude in #shugashack who pointed this article out, I forgot your name though, sorry :)

Wish everybody had it there would be that much less whining!
Diff company do0d.
I get the first mo. free. So thats a cost of $74.40 a month. :)
$140 for Digital switch at my location.
$180 for Instalation with 1 year agreement.
That is $320/12 months. That is $26/mo. And you have to pay
that #320 up front. ;) So, thats $50/mo PLUS $26 mo. for a true
cost of $76/mo for the first year.
Any way I go, I gotta pay. And if regular service DSL becomes avail
at my location, I can switch to it for $100 one time fee. and the price
drops to $50/mo. And if SWB drops its price below that, they are gonna \'
match the swb price.
DAMN i luv competition. :)
next month,next month,man I was pissed.one day searching the web I
ran accross flashnet...voila now the railgun is my BiAtC7.BTW Im only
using the 380 connect for $50 a month,Gareth will be taking no prisoners
hehe
SCREW BELL TELEPHONE hehe happy fraggin D0od!
Gonna have xdsl (196down AND 196 up!) in about 5 weeks.
SWB can suck my nuts!
$80/mo (a little steep) but well worth the money considering i can
trash my ISP and 2nd line which will save me $35 a mo. So the real
cost is only $45 a month more. And not to mention my upside is better
than std DSL from SWB.
Maybe I can start bustin\' some rail shots.
btw- NO instalation costs, NO equipment costs. Oh yeah.
Thanx again Deucy :)
But Bell Tele has already checked and im at 19000 cable feet from
the co, and the limit is 17700. Sux for me. Is there any kind of workaround
for my situation?
11 rail awards in a net game.....gotta love DSL and a bouncy map.
here is a *quality* shot of the boot, its not a shoe after all

See bell telephone is a competitor and thier not going to tell you that
covad dsl service practically has every major city wired up through
a company called flashnet! the catch is bell tellephone still owns the phonelines
and covad has to rent from them. hence you have to wait 4to6 weeks for bell tellephone to drag thier sorry asses
out to test your lines,they would rather have you wait for them to do everything instead of using flashnet/covad techs
because once you get dsl from another company you can disconnect your seperate computer phone line
