Yeaup... the kid is a gamer, so he loves cable over dsl.

If you are a gamer you gotta go with cable if not go with whatever is the makes the most financial sense. Cable is SMOKIN fast! A buddy of mine who games says he can kill people with out them even knowing it with his top of the line cable package.

Home Cable beats home DSL. You can get faster DSL speeds and better response if you pay the price.

Coming soon to everyone. Wireless Nationwide. Internet connection anywhere anytime.

Wireless is prominent in Asia.

Here is some info for ya, Liz.

Cable is much faster than basic DSL. Much faster. But...you can always pay extra and get a faster DSL line. If you have the cash to throw away you can get a DSL line faster than Cable.

For me, Cable is just fine.

basically we just need the internet to be able to check email, surf the net, post here, play games in pogo, just the everyday type usage and maybe dl some music (if I get my pc running again or get extra memory or external hard drive for the laptop)

DSL would have worked until you said download music. You need Cable. The extra speed will make you happy.

we don't know yet if they have cable internet in Guam, all I've seen is dsl and dial up (SHUDDERS) but then again I haven't gotten really down and dirty researching either lol so they just might and then again like Clive said we'll have to see what's available in the area we'll be living. who knows they might only have the dreaded dial up (SHUDDERS) there

:-( we'll have to wait and see. but my main thing is to get there and be altogether again!

Good luck and have fun in Guam. Just remember, either is better than dial up!
