- I'll remember that the next time I am sitting around at school waiting for
- either the Mac or the PC I am on to Netscape me something during the mid
- mornig or late afternoon, when 10-500 bytes per second is not un-common on
- the unviersities ethernet system!
-
- Same trouble at home during the same times to the U's computer, so I think
- it's probably the system being congested.
