port opposed to the 155k sec that i usually get. please let me know what the
problem is and when it will be fixed.

Sounds like a broken motivator confunction to me.

Bah, sunspots.

maybe they have been causing some major cmos battery failures, I think we need to update the firmware to the docking station and uninstall the latest service pack on the OS and cease using usb 2.0 devices.

God bless. You cannot type fast enough to justify that goddamn USB keyboard.

Hi, (luser)
Thank you for your email.

(Your friendly ISP) does not perform throttling on the newsgroup server. Perhaps there's just a lot of people using more than their fair share of that newsgroup service, downloading binary files.

The newsgroup server is still in beta and is not covered by full technical
support. As such, please direct further queries on this matter to the
disconnections department.

Regards,
(your friendly service droid)
