They also sent half way across Haifa to replace it (not sure if she actually did it yet), when she travels by bus and we actually leave outside Haifa and 1.5km from the nearest bus station ... Hot, although the service quality is a bit shitty sent a tech over to my house about 5 times and replaced the modem at my house twice due to connection problems. they are all worthless, it mostly depends on what exactly you need from the at the time. _______________________________________________ Linux-il mailing list Linux-il@cs.huji.ac.il http://mailman.cs.huji.ac.il/mailman/listinfo/linux-il
