I am switching over to DS1 from Matcom in 3 weeks

[LynneSin]

Just not getting the great service from Matcom like I use to

[AllegroRondo]

1. what kind of "service" were you expecting?

:evilgrin:

[LynneSin]

2. Well I was expecting some faster service

Matcom was just soooooooooo slow

[GreenPartyVoter]

3. *snickering*

[BarenakedLady]

5. But is faster always better?

:shrug:

[kay1864]

9. The problem is, there's "slower"...

and then there's "asleep".

:rofl:

[AllegroRondo]

11. its not the speed, its the file size

or so I've been led to believe.

[LynneSin]

13. It's not the size of the wave but the motion of the ocean

Someone told me that one once

[AllegroRondo]

14. but is it true?

????

[Ellen Forradalom]

6. It's not slow service, it's high latency.

[Hawkeye-X]

4. *rofl*

THanks for the generous copycat thread, Lynn! :hug: :hi:

[LynneSin]

7. Nobody copycats better than me

It's like the copycat ideas just jump out of the page

[Dr. Strange]

8. It's good...

but Estimated's copycat is pretty funny too--it has a better "geek factor."

[LynneSin]

10. True, but I managed to incorporate 2 well known DUers and question their skillsets

:woohoo:

[Dr. Strange]

12. Good point!

Questioning their skillsets--that's the stuff of great threads!

[City of Mills]

15. Have you considered the cost and reliability issues?

Sometimes the grass isn't always greener on the other side, you know! Just sayin...

[Gormy Cuss]

16. DS1 isn't all that.

You'll pay a lot more for DS1 and get only marginally better service than Matcom.

:hide:

[LynneSin]

18. Yes but I heard DS1's customer service is far superior than Matcom's

:D

[Gormy Cuss]

19. Yeah, DS1 hasn't outsourced it yet.

With Matcom you never know who'll be servicing your account.
:D

[LynneSin]

20. Seriously - that's the main reason for the switch

:D

[underpants]

17. History will show that it was the entrance of the female element into the scene the precipitated

the downfall of the group.

[Rabrrrrrr]

21. Pfft. Tell me about it. I haven't had good service from matcom in years.

Ever since he got that scooter, it's been downhill.

[LynneSin]

22. That's when I noticed a sharp decline in Matcom

and when they brought DS1 back I just knew it was time for a switch

[Midlodemocrat]

23. That's odd. We get GREAT service from matcom.

Well, TeenMidlo does anyway.

That poor child. If her father only knew that she was such an object of lust. :cry:

[trof]

24. More channels? Cheaper? Commercial free?
