a b p w - What is that? For one, I would prefer a link. I realize everyone else knows about a p b w and fully expect scorn a derision, but thought to make the observation regardless. (;

I guess you gets what whats you pays for. Upgrade your service and you can see what the rest of us see. Sorry. I cannot help you.

Just you wait till I up load my 181 Gigabite detail shot of the special hinge I used. LOL

Yea, Leon... get yourself a Photobucket account..free/cheap/easy.

Still free/cheaper/easier for me is if every one would finally upgrade to a decent news server, or what ever, like most every one has done with broad band. LOL

My quick calculations show that would take 36 days at a very generous upload speed of 512kb/s. Thanks for getting me to pull my calculator out and change the batteries, though. One had just started to leak.

I dont't know about that, LOL. Quarterly I update my Garmin GPS and "down load" a 1.8 GB file in about 2.5 hours. If my up load speed was only 1/10 of that speed, .18 GB per hour it would take 1005 hours or 41 days. LOL

I am not running at "generous speed".

Guess you can lead an old ass to water but you can't make him drink. :) Doubt the generalization above holds true with "most"....

I'd say the generalization probably hold true to most. a.b.p.w. was pretty much deserted 6-8 months ago. Now today, I see almost as much traffic as I did a couple years ago.

I'd say that's mostly because it was approximately a year ago that many ISP's started dropping usenet access and in particular, binary newsgroups. The more recent amount of postings probably means that many of those who lost that service have finally gotten around to finding other means of accessing a.b.p.w.

"That" was what I was trying to say. ;~)
