I was in a 3 bedroom house + 2 bedroom guesthouse + pool + 2.5 acres for 7 years in an area 3 miles from cable and Internet services, stuck on satellite.

Yes, that's what I meant. I assume you weren't living like that because you couldn't afford anything else ;)

I know one person in, er, real life who turns on her computer when she wants to use it, and then turns it off again when she's done. Now that to me is unfathomable. Computer goes on first thing in the morning, off last thing at night. Modem and router are separate, so they never go off unless there is a Problem.
