I still don't have a "reliable" hi-speed connection at home. My parents don't understand why I refuse to use the 56k dial-up modem at home. As my friend said, "it's barbaric" and I agree whole-heartedly. I'd rather take my iBook and use the internal 56k modem- and I would, only the one phone jack in my room was ripped out when I was in sixth grade.
"Your job is to study." My parents often told me in middle school, highschool and now college. And study I did, and then I used to sneak downstairs to the Power Mac (running Mac OS 7.x, whooo!) and talk to friends all night via AOL 3.0. And it was sweet. Nowadays, well.. yeah. Fucking dial-up.
However, my friends have decent internet connection so I usually leech internet. I can't wait until I have a wireless card. Wardriving...
