    haha dial up and broadband is way tooo much different....

    the only thing i like about dial up is the dial up account user and password can be used anywhere in my country where there is a telephone port, unlike broadband, 1 account, 1 por can be used onlyt....

    Damn... of course broadband lol

    Some of you guys in Asia are sooo lucky!! Here in Aus. broadband is SOOO SLOW!!! Fastest is like 2-5 mbps ..And we get a capped amount each month. Some people in Japan I know already have 2 GB ps internet... unlimited too... They planning to release up to 10 GBps internet soon I hear

    lol its not 2 GB/s

    its 61 Mb/s average in japan

    There is a bank network in japan that runs at 10 Gb/s, but the general public doesn't have access to those massive speeds.

    99/100 will say broadband.

    No connection cost
    Infinite hours to be connected
    "FASTER SPEED" (surfing and download)
    Cheaper in the long term.
