In my old school me and my mate tried to get on Mplayer. Cause the School had dual ISDN the ping was 5m/s. We were like WOW. With my T3 i get less usually.

Excellent Digl. Sometime you should check pings to North American or maybe Central American servers. Perhaps if the pings are good enough we can hook up for a game.

The only problem I have now is my poor HD :)
About a year or more ago I played a LOT JK, and also some Q2, but I got bored of it because of lag, and played mainly SP and UT with bots

Now I guess Ill start playing some UT, Rune, maybe CS, I dont know, Ill start trying MP in all the games I havent because of the terrible connection I had before

Ill check my ping with some North American servers, maybe I could even play in the next OWK..duh...JKII.net? championship?. I guess I just had a good idea :)

JKII.net championship? Fun.

I have an awesome rig but with 56k. Pretty unfortunate. Doubtful I'll get broadband anytime soon. I will be really pissed if SWG comes out and I don't have it. I doubt that game will be very good with 56k.

Im not sure if the ping I have now will be good enough to play Galaxies, and I doubt there will be a server anywhere near here

People with broadband here, do you recommend me any of those accelerators? Not only for downloads, but for navigation acceleration
They were useless with my 56k, but some people have told me that they really improve their cable connections

When the Pentium 4 2Ghz comes out in the UK im gonna get one :). With my Geforce 3, 5 speaker surround sound, 21" montior that should run JK2 nicely.

Ok.....a funny thing someone said once.....(not me by the way)....."2 speakers can produce surround sound"....how the hell is that possible??

its possible becaue highs travel much easier, you dont need the wattage to hear a tweeter at 1/4 mile, as you do a sub. you know lows have a taller wave...oh,were you kidding?
