Home Office
When the Internet dies, blame me, Steve "Bozo" Bass. At least, that's the word from members of the North American Network Operators Group. The responses came after I suggested in June's @Home Office that readers tweak a Registry setting to speed up Internet access. NANOG members worried that, if readers took my advice, the Net would melt.
So they flamed me. They called me a bozo, accused me of being antisocial, and asked (rhetorically, I think) if I was an imbecile or a moron. (I like the bozo characterization--it matches my hairline.)
Well, fuel up your flamethrowers, folks, because I'm about to do it again. I've uncovered more ways to unclog your Internet access. And I don't care who knows about it.
