I left home this morning with a pair 7GB downloads started from Roxio's  Digital River service, and at their crawling non-speed of 47kbps it was going to take 4 hours. Got home, expecting to install the files, and they were not there. From the blinking 0's on the microwave, its appears we had a short power outage. My keyboard was not responding, so I did a shutdown and restart to fix that. PS2 keyboard is a BIOS thing, usually a soft reboot won't help. So now I'm downloading again, and @#$%^&* Digital River is still at a dial-up crawl. I'll be complaining to Roxio about this - there's no excuse for tin can on a string server speeds, ever.


Went into my email to find the eBay U confirmation pdf, and it seems I never received it. Do have the paypal receipt, so will bring that along.

Yeah, there was a very brief blackout here yesterday morning. Heading toward that time of year ...
