Thanks for the comments, Walt. I know what you mean because we're on
a land-line modem, too. Can't get DSL or similar because we're rural
and about 25,000 feet from the nearest link. Takes me about 15
minutes do download one of those damned MP3 samples and that's way
too long! Given that I don't want to re-design this thing again in
what's left of my life, I figured I'd order something more toward the
leading edge rather than the Pleistocene technologies you and I still
have. But I'll give this some thought because we'd like it to work.
