In less than 2 seconds, Lothberg can download a full-length movie on her home computer — many thousand times faster than most residential connections, said Hafsteinn Jonsson, head of the Karlstad city network unit.


At 75 years old she doesn’t have that many years left. It’s best that she uses the net as quickly as possible while she still can.

I relate to that! (I have 15 grandkids) (and a son that builds me a new computer ever few years - )

Believe me, one does start to appreciate the days more at this end of the cycle. If, when I get up in the morning and look in the mirror - if someone's in there - I call it a good day.
