I love Scoobynet, hubby love Ebay. He's guitar mad. I'm Scooby mad,
We may need to get more computers,and phone lines, there's always a scrap as to who gets on first. Anyone else with this problem?

No.

I dominate the laptop and pay for the broadband. I keep a few windows open - one being ebay and another being SN.

Get broadband, a router and some more PCs.

We have 4 PC's networked. Main PC for me, one for my wife, second PC for me so I can surf whilst playing online games on the main PC, and a final PC which doesn't get much use now I'm no longer playing EverQuest

84of300 - ever been mistaken for 7of9?

Some ISP's will support network BB others wont. Plenty of easy set by set guides to help you though.

Yes...as the man says...get a router or hub, we have one and run two pcs and a lappy off it. At our last address we even had a cable running next door so our neighbour could log on to broadband and share the costs.... we do that now at our new biz address with our new neighbour. Split the costs everyone is happy.

I was going to do that with my neighbour with wireless, but I wouldn't want what he looks at on my IP logs

No, not heard of that one. Currently playing World of Warcraft after a brief foray into EQ2. Very much a casual player though now after the insanity that is being an officer of a high-level raiding guild in EQ and playing for 40 hours a week.

I have some friends who play WOW, its too expensive for me though. Runescape is a far less graphically pleaseing game, but its much cheaper, and you dont have to buy a CD or anything, just download the client Its getting quite popular now, usually over 100k players in the evenings.
