Mobile Broadband is NOT Cable Internet
My dad is always espousing that his mobile broadband card (which is plugged into a wireless router to supply internet to the house) is just as fast as cable internet, and I should cancel Comcast and get a mobile broadband card for my apartment. Well, here I am at my parents' house, and downloading a printer driver is now 13% complete with only 35 MINUTES to go.

The sad thing is that his printer IS installed on my laptop, but not wirelessly, and I'm not allowed to go into the office to hook up my computer via USB, so here I am, feeling like I'm back on dial-up...
