Can't wait till my exchange goes ADSL, funny tho, BT only support their supplied USB ADSL adaptor under Windoze 98 or above !! god only know why !! As to the note about ISP's and Linux, well believe it or not Eclipse in Exeter had their first linux user write a load of connection scripts for them and offer to give their linux users free support (guess who this was guys ;-) ) i believe the scripts are still on their servers with my name all over them !! I am in Plymouth (stoke) and i have been reliably informed (by bt) that the exchange i am connecting to (next month) will be ADSL by the end of this year. they didn't say weather they meant calendar year, financial year or even school year tho !!! teehee Oh well, i'll sign off for now..
