[G4] Speeding up

[Hector I. Macedo]

Hi Wilton, no,

1.-  your email address will change since you are changing provider  
(you could keep the first part, but after the @ it will be the  
provider's name.

2.- The conection is through a cable that goes to a modem and from  
there to your computer(s) via a cat 5 ethernet cable.\If you want to  
have more than one computer, the only extra thing that you will need  
is a router to send the signal to all the comps.

Then round his hook the chosen fur he winds,
And on the back a speckled feather binds;
So just the colours shine through ev'ry part,
That nature seems to live again in art.
