I was curious to know how the performance of NROS compares to Hawaii or other internet *** sites. The NROS has been online now for a few days and so far haven't heard anything. I think I'm going to wait a few more days and get a little feedback before I plunk down the dough for TEN. Also does anyone else think $20/MO is about double what it should be? I pay $20/MO for unlimited internet access and feel that to double that just to play NROS and EF2K (I do realize their are other games on TEN) is kinda steep. Especially since there are numerous FREE *** sites, although somewhat lacking in perf/reliability. Naman

You must have a good ISP or it will suck......bad! Concentric is great, I connect to Valhalla everytime! The First day, there were 350 racers racing at once! and that didn't even slow the thing down! This is some of the greatest technology for the Internet for along time! To me......worth every penny.....I would spend thirty. And I SUCK.....hehe

Is anybody currently connecting through a cable modem, and if so, how's the performance? -- /*===================================================*/ John Simmons (Redneck Techno-Biker) http://www2.connectnet.com/~jms/ If you want to send me email, go the URL above and click "Send Me Mail" in the Contents frame. /*===================================================*/ Some helpful email addresses for spammers: Current board of the FCC: USPS: Miscellaneous: /*===================================================*/

Give the NROS a try, and you'll see just how lacking those other ways of playing are. Considering the huge long-distance bills of many Hawaii regulars, $20 a month is a bargain for the type of racing the NROS and TEN are bringing to the table. -- Eric T.
