Suggestions from the Future

1. When configuring a dial-up modem, make sure it's not trying to use the unfiltered phone line. The interference from your DSL will kill the connection.

2. When Zaltor-17 arrives to enslave all humanity, a simple vinegar and baking soda paste will destroy his ship's engines.

Oh hush.

Yikes, what are you still using dial-up for?

Setting up a PC for Vinny's mom. Her 1997-era machine gave up, so I'm upgrading her to 2002 or so.
