I mean, 28.8k modems are already becoming the standard.. Most computer users in my area (Ohio) already have 28.8s. About the more inexperienced pilots getting the snot kicked out of them, that's just one more neat thing about the server! I consider myself a "good" pilot that could take a beating and give one out as well.. See, the "good" pilots could take on the rookies as wingmates and fly together until they're good enough to take off on their own. I'm sure that there'll always be a kind, experienced pilot around to help any newbies off the ground. I know I would be.. Happy kitty whackin'! -- SS S SSSS SSSS SSSSSS SSSS SSSSS SS S SS SS SS SS S SS S -- vic...@erinet.com SS S SS SS SS SS S SSSSS "Deus vult!" SS SSSS SSSS SS SSSS SS S
