Bill,
I just ran a speed test for you and it wasn't all that bad, but I'll tell you, the biggest problem I have seen lately is that performance is not consistent. Sometimes I can't even get on to Chat (I get a "website not responding" message) andother times it seems as good as pre crash. I don't know how else to explain it.

Kepi,
Define xx secs to post --- is this from when you press ENTER and you get the "accepted" screen?
Define xx secs to edit --- is this how long it takes to get back to your posting??/

Bill,
Does it matter to you whether we're on broadband or dial up?
I'm on dial up

Great... Thanks everyone. Getting info from Vermont, California and Oregon is a good cross-section.
As Ken said, the times are better now, than they have been, but overall the performance is very inconsistent.

STOP THE TEST... okay, thanks guys!!! I had them on the phone for exactly one hour.
Bottom line -- they don't know what the problem is. And... they agree that we should be peeved. Imagine that!!!
I will post a status about this weekend and my decision on how I'm going to proceed, in a different thread later tonight. I'm still waiting for a reply back from a techie in Texas.... No... not MrMack!! ha ha...

Well between me and a light pole he could do worse for a techie than M/W What do you want to know about ionizing radiation or how fast the frontal wave of RDX travels under water?
