Sometimes, indeed, I can get amazing speeds for download (nearly 2 mbps), but uploads are not so fast. Also, it depends a lot on the time of day. Late at night, my machine is the fastest on the block; during daytime hours, when everybody and their dogs are online, it can slow to a trickle, and I get bumped offline sporadically, or sometimes even constantly, to the point where I just go offline and do something else. Likewise, I am willing to donate, if it means that I get to keep using TDE as my desktop. (Seems like a good investment.) But we keep getting bogged down just about at this same point. The best solution would seem to be, set up some kind of legal entity: a company, a non-profit, an org, to which we can all contribute as we are able, according to our talents or financial means. One of those obstacles is just that we would have to choose somewhere to have a physical presence in the so-called real world; and that means that we would become subject to local laws and regulations, taxes and fees and fines and what-not. If we go that route, then we need to choose the place wisely. Is there any nation that is run by enlightened sages? Bill
