Haha, That's exactally what I thought as soon as I got DSL. I was excited to be getting it and then I couldn't think of anything to do... That was 4 years ago and now all I do is just play Counter-strike or work on my own projects. I really don't even use the internet much anymore...

Yea but when you go from cable to a broken/wet dialup line (14kbps - 41kbps) you WILL only then realize how much it actually means to you :P
