    Well, the title says it all; it is about time! We got our satellite connection installed this morning and everything is great.. Yay!

    This calls for some happy-dancing bananas.

    Thanks! Couldn't let this post go by without a celebratory pic (yes those are my ramen noodles, heh.)

    Cool...Dont know much about satellite internet....Is it expensive? How much more than cable or DSL? Who are the service providers? Can you get package deals with satellite TV or Radio?

    It is around 100 per month. It could have been lowered to 50 but we chose to pay for the equip. gradually instead of up front. It sounds like a lot, but dialup would have been around 60, more for dsl, and we don't have or need a home phone (use our cells.) Plus I will be paying for much of it in the increased ebay-ing i'll be doing, and Mark has his own biz now and this is affordable for us at this time (as I have a better job now too! FT Admin for a collection agency.) Plus we would just not be able to do all that we do online with DU, and cable is not available this far out in the sticks! This is a nice, fast connection!
