High speed Internet service

Here I am again, punching away at my computer. I tell ya, I can't imagine where I'd be without this dream machine. If you're anything like me, you depend on your computer and high speed Internet service everyday for a number of routine chores and communication with others. It's safe to say that the majority of us have embraced the age of computers. Life without them at this point looks bleak. Then again, it wasn't long ago when we first discovered the web and dial-up service. Yikes, I shudder at the thought of those old days.

By now everyone has heard the noise. That irksome, screechy connection noise that occurs when you tap into the Internet via a phone line. I personally despise that darn sound. And it's not just because the noise itself is atrocious and hard on the ears. It's the negative memories that go along with it. Yeah, I had dial-up connection before high speed Internet service became available. And just like many others, I hated it. You see, the problem wasn't necessarily how slow the web pages loaded or your email sent; it was the fact that you could get kicked off at any given time. This doesn't occur with cable high speed Internet service. But with that pesky dial-up I was booted out of cyberspace on a regular basis. Sometimes it was because a fellow family member picked up the telephone and I lost connection. However, most of the time it was just due to customer overload. Apparently the dial-up Internet service I had at the time was far too popular in my area. I would generally be in the middle of something crucial when it would happen. Suddenly my computer said "Goodbye." Whatever I was doing was lost, and I got so sick of re-writing emails and such. Give me a break!

These days there's no more reason to fret. Millions of us

enjoy wireless high speed Internet service with our little laptops in-hand. It's hard to imagine that it can get any better than this, but I'm sure it will. It always does. Who knows where high speed Internet service is headed in the future. Just as long as we never have to hear that terrible dial-up noise again, I'm sure we'll be happy.
