and now it's time for scenes from an irc channel:

[skrooyoo] did you know that if you're on a 14.4 but say you're on a T1 in 
            your napster prefs, it automatically upgrades your connection 
            to T1?
[skrooyoo] It's true!
[skrooyoo] only works on 14.4s, though.
[DC-Ghent] wow, don't let lucent find out, ot they'll patent it.
[skrooyoo] i heard napster was a lucent plot to get everyone used to 
            working at t1 speeds so that when napster gets shut down 
            everyone will go out and lease lines.
[skrooyoo] thus making more money for the telco.
[DC-Ghent] Those Bastards!  They'll do anything to save their dying company
[skrooyoo] exactly.
[skrooyoo] evidently, sales of Plan9 weren't going as well as they'd hoped.
