Yes? This will fail! First, it will cost too much... I won't use these
kind of things and lot of people will do the same. They will chnage of
OS. Then, this will require the telephone line? Forget this, my parents
will never want me to use this. Each time I would open my CPU I would
have to be connected? He he he this will never work! (With Internet I
already have to fight enough to have the phone line... like my friends
:) )
