this is the current situation in my region. Not bad as I thought, even if the HDSL offer is prohibitive for small companies like mine. I really hope the new elected president of Emilia Romagna, dr. Errani, will mantain his promises to fully cover the region by end of 2006.
In my new house that is under the Town of “Albareto” (province of Parma), I actually can have only ISDN connection that is not exactly the best one available… :) I was thinking about buying a satellite connection, but I’ll just wait some months to see if maybe ADSL will become available in my town (even if my house is far away from the town center, just behind a mountain - I like being an heremite!).

So I "converted" Supernova 2 into 800x600 and now I must admit that looks much better. You have also to scroll less in the galaxy map screen, which is another positive effect.... (click title to view entry)

    Wow! at least there is an advantage in being an expat! At home in Bruxelles my 2Mbit rocks! But I’m envious anyway… you live in a wonderful place (I also come from Emilia-Romagna), you develop games (which is more fun than work for ANY IT company out there), and after all, who cares about slow speed when you can admire a sunset on the Appennini?

    Indeed I don’t complain :) it even seems that Telecom made a sort of ISDN flat, it would me more than enough to work!
