I used to judge whether it was still working by how many games of Spider Solitaire I could play while waiting, LOL!

I can relate as I used to live in an area where dial up was the only option. When I finally got high speed I thought I had died and gone to heaven but I spent more money on Ebay as my bids were actually arriving before auctions ended.

LOL.... That's what I do.
When I download a new program like adobe or mozilla updates, I play solitaire until it finishes downloading.
