It's not perzactly 'speedy' on a 6Mbit dedicated link[1], either... 
"FasterFox" tells me it was an 8 second load time. The downloads page took 
12 seconds, and some of the graphics should already have been cached.

For conversation's sake, www.yahoo.com (which I never go to) was 2.2 
seconds, 2.5 seconds for www.tomshardware.com and www.coco3.com was a hair 
under 4 seconds.

I'm glad I didn't [initially] try it at home on my 64K ISDN -- I can try it 
tonite & report back if you like...

But it shore is purty!!! ;-)
