Yeh well you're only allowed one computer per connection. I would never use kazaa anyway so that doesn't bother me. I'm sure i'll get by, as long as i have an internet connection. I'll just make sure i've got plenty of single player games to keep me busy. I'll probably be doing more work than anything.

They told me I was gullible ... and I believed them.
best of luck getting used to the bright lights and the moving mechanical wonders on the roads
bb to u is what ? Dial-up ?
Some halls are pretty good about it. My current net connection is CRAP though. Out of here in a few days and straight to megabit
This Student Village in Aberdeen net con has this mad firewall, most games work, and the techies always open the weird game ports I used when slightly prodded with my email stick. Great ping in games too
Oh.. and the mac address registration thingy annoyed me. I have 2 computers.. and wanted to install gentoo on the non-internet one. But sod registering a mac address for 2 days. <- I have no router.
Best of luck with the course
can i just say kezzer, on a light hearted note, you live in a tax free zone, then move to england as a tax dodgeronly kiddin
Heh, i won't be used to the tax. When i last went to england your petrol costs like 80p per litre and over here it's half the price and we thought petrol costed a lot over here!
I still will be able to avoid tax if i pay for things over the internet 'cause i'm still officially a guernsey resident temporarily in england.
killGORE it's one MAC addy per connection but i'm going to ask the techies if i can use 2 computers since one is command line based and i won't be able to do anything on it. It kind of acts like a router but it's more there for the firewall. We'll see anyway.
