Not alone...

After years of being a warez whore and all that personally I've grown a bit bored with the internet. Content is stagnant. Now it's less entertainment and just at tool which is why I'm not quite ready for going back to dial up but would be interested in a dirt cheap 128/128 or something like that.

Save for online gaming there really isn't anything I do with my DSL that I couldn't do on dialup. IMO, broadband kinda killed the internet by it allowing developers to create high bandwidth crap like flash everything. To me macromedia has done more the ruin the internet experience than anything. I liked it better when it more was simpler and too the point. Like most things, commercialization has killed it to the point you have to have broadband to download all the friggin' ads. So I for one long for the days of Netcom netcruiser, 5 minutes to download a single jpg of pr0n, run through separate uue decode software just to find out the chick is haggit with a giant hairy bush. Of course that is a step up from a BBS. But that's just my rant on an internet message board about how the internet sux.
