    Sorry to report but on 10 meg here and it is taking forever too.

    Just a suggestion and in no way take this as a criticism. I'm in tech support myself and with this site growing all the time (because it is so good) why not split the forums onto different servers. Transfering the mysql database with user details, threads and passwords to another should not be too hard.

    So so Slooooooowwwww!! I've given up trying to post on the forums. This isn't me posting ...... I'm using ESP.
    It has taken about 4,500,000,000 (4.5 billion) years for the Earth to form as it is now .........
    and it'll only take about another 100 years for mankind to really **** it up!!!!
