For a while now, Marcel and I have been talking about how much we’d love to move to the area where my parents live. It is extremely remote where they are, and the one big argument Marcel has about living there would be that the Internet connection is a ‘dinosaur’ as he calls it. In other words, because the area is so remote the only option is dial up, which as we all know, is not the most reliable connection in the world.
Since I also use the computer for my work, and also to keep connected to friend and family via Facebook and email, I explained to him that a good Internet connection was also important to me and that I felt quite sure that there was something out there we could be happy with when the day came that we make the move. I did a little research and sure enough I found satellite internet service providers, which would offer us not only a stable Internet connection, but also a connection which is at a much higher speed than what we have in our current location. Marcel seemed relieved that he wouldn’t have to go back to the ‘stone ages’, so at least that one little problem is solved when the time comes for us to move. I wish it was tomorrow.
